Prof. Christopher Ameyaw-Akumfi, Board Chairman for Public Procurement Authority and NPP National Chairman Hopeful is calling on Government, Non-governmental Organizations and Well-meaning Individuals to make it a priority to direct enough resources to Schools for Children with Disabilities or Special Needs in order not to let them feel rejected.
Prof. Ameyaw-Akumfi noted that the potentials and talents in students or persons with special needs could fully be harnessed to benefit the nation despite their physical challenges therefore the required resources or support should be given to them
and so that they do not become a burden to society.
He made this observation in an interview with the media when he paid a visit to the Ark Foundation Integrated Disability School at Offinso in the Ashanti Region where he made a huge donation to them as part of activities to mark his birthday.
Barimah Antwi Sylvester, Founder of Ark Foundation Integrated Disability School showing gratitude to the good Professor revealed that the about hundred Persons with Disabilities ranging from children in schools to adults learning different vocations or artisanship are all been admitted freely and needed support from Government and Charity Organizations to secure their survival.
