Asantehemaa Nana Konadu Yiadom III has cleared the medical bill of patients at the Mother and Baby Unit (MBU), Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) and Paediatric Emergency Unit (PEU) at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital in Kumasi, as part of her fifth-anniversary celebration.
The Asantehemaa also donated packages of food and washing powder to mothers whose children have been admitted to KATH and the Manhyia District Hospital where it was announced that the Asantehemaa hoped to make the act an annual.
On behalf of Nana Konadu Yiadom III, a delegation of Queenmothers led by the Asante Mamponghemaa, Nana Agyakoma Difie II, visited KATH and the Manhyia District Hospital to donate the handouts.
The delegation included; Agonamanhemaa, Nana Acheampomaa Ntansah, Ejisuhemaa, Nana Yaa Asantewaa II, Agogomanhemaa, Nana Afrakoma Serwaa Kusi Obuadum, Otumfuo Fontomfromhemaa Nana Ama Achiaa, Abradehemaa, Abrafi Mansa, Tepamanhemaa, Nana Agyeiwaa Paamu II, and Kenyase No.1 manhemaa, Nana Yaa Adutwumwaa II.
When the Mamponghemaa Nana Agyakuma Difie II broke the news that medical bills of MBU, PICU, and PEU patients scheduled to be discharged today, and patients scheduled for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan would be absorbed by the Asantehemaa, mothers at the units beamed with joy.
In addition to the items, one hundred chairs and stools were also donated to provide convenience to mothers whose babies will be admitted to the unit.
The Queenmothers found their way to the Manhyia District Hospital from KATH, where Items were given out to mothers whose babies had been admitted.
The gesture comes ahead of the Asantehemaa’s 5th Anniversary Celebration dubbed “The role of the contemporary Queen Mothers” held over the weekend.
