Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the 2024 New Patriotic Party (NPP) presidential candidate, has donated GH¢100,000 to Bernard Mensah, a polling station officer in Mampoma, Twifo Atti-Morkwa constituency, who was severely injured in a near-fatal electrical accident.
Mr. Mensah sustained serious injuries while fixing street light bulbs on poles during the ongoing election campaign.
His recovery has required extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation, leaving him and his family in need of financial assistance.
To support him, Dr. Bawumia sent a delegation led by Percival Quaicoe, the Central Regional NPP Chairman, along with Regional Secretary Richard Takyi Mensah and Treasurer Francis Asare.
They presented the donation on behalf of the Vice President.
