Diplomatic Platform tours Ashanti Region; donates cash, registers 500 Underprivileged under NHIS
An
NDC youth group, Diplomatic Platform, has extended its charity arm
towards a total of 500 underprivileged dwellers at Adansi Anhwiaso, a
village located in Adansi Asokwa Constituency of the Ashanti Region, by
getting them registered under the National Health Insurance Scheme free
of charge.
The
group toured some parts of area last week purposely to reach out to the
poor rural dwellers in their bid to help them meet their health needs
by guarantying their easy enrollment onto the National Health
Insurance Scheme.
In
all, a total of 500 beneficiaries, both men and women, were registered
and their NHIS cards handed to them instantly to help them access
healthcare whenever the need arose.
According
to Julius Logass, administrator of the Diplomatic Platform, the gesture
forms part of President John Dramani Mahama and the NDC's social
intervention and transformational agenda to reach out to the poor in the
society by helping them get easy access to health delivery.
“The
National Democratic Congress as a social democratic party whom we
represent would always put in place the needed reasons to the benefit of
the deprived in our community,” Julius added.
In
a separate development the Platform has also donated an unspecified
amount of cash to Anhwiaso D/A Junior High School in the Ashanti Region
to aid them towards completion of a classroom block project, which the
school is currently undertaking to enhance learning and teaching in
the area.
Members
of the platform also paid a courtesy call on the Chief of Adansi
Anhwiaso, Nana Korankye Sarfo, to ask for his blessings in their
political affairs ahead of the 2016 election, before making a return
trip back to Accra.
The
Diplomatic Platform is a whatsapp platform created with youth
membership of 100 who share in the principles and ideology of the
National Democratic Congress Party (NDC).
This
is the fourth time the Platform has stretched its charity arm to
support a worthy cause since its inception in July 22, 2014.
First
was the Weija Leprosarium followed by the inmates of the Akropong
School for the blind and now over five-hundred deprived rural dwellers
in Adansi Anhwiaso village plus the Anhwiaso D/A Junior High School in
the Ashanti Region.
