Former President Jerry John Rawlings gave hope to a street beggar struggling with physical difficulties when he donated him an undisclosed sum. This money will be used to finance the barber diploma of the daughter of Emmanuel Ofoe.

Mr. Ofoe who rides in a custom wheelchair and broken with a CD registration plate at Kawukudi Crossroads in Kanda, in the suburbs of Accra, slipped a note detailing his plight with the following. former president in traffic last week.

In his note, he informed the former president of the challenge he was meeting to help his daughter, who had completed her training as a hairdresser in Ada, to graduate.

Little did he know that there was hope in the horizon. Excited after donating to the former President's office, he expressed gratitude for the generosity.

Mr Ofoe said the money would go to pay for the graduation fee as well as a decent reception for the family and friends who honor the ceremony.

According to him, he was "stationed" at Kawukudi for about 10 years.

Emotional, Mr Ofoe revealed that he had become physically disabled at the age of six after becoming ill and that he had subsequently developed a neurological side effect that could not be treated .

Former charismatic president Rawlings maintains a warm relationship with hawkers at the Kawukudi junction.

A peanut seller who has persistently dropped a small bag of peanuts into his car is now selling minerals and freezing water from a freezer offered by Rawlings' office.

Another young woman who was found selling to raise money to continue her education was sponsored to return to school.
