“Celebrating with People with Disabilities” Hon Mireku Duker(Member of Parliament for Tarkwa Nsuaem)
Yesterday, on May 9, 2024, I had the privilege of celebrating my birthday in a truly special way. Instead of the usual festivities, I chose to spend this day with a remarkable group of individuals: People Living with Disabilities (PWDs) in my constituency of Tarkwa.
It was an experience that deeply touched my heart and reminded me of the importance of giving back to our community.
The gathering was filled with warmth, gratitude, and a sense of unity as we came together to reflect on our journey and to express our appreciation to the Almighty for His blessings. Sharing a meal and drinks, we not only celebrated my birthday but also shared moments of joy and camaraderie with each other.
In addition to the festivities, I had the honor of presenting a donation to support the PWDs in our community. I provided wheelchairs, walking sticks, and crutches, along with a cash token to the leadership. It was a small gesture of support, but one that I hope will make a meaningful difference in their lives.
During the event, I took a moment to address the gathering, urging everyone to remember the importance of inclusivity and to always consider the needs of those who may be marginalized or overlooked in our society. It is essential that we continue to support and uplift each other, especially during special moments like birthdays and celebrations.
I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who contributed to making this day a memorable one. Special thanks to my colleagues, Hon. Alex Agyare, Kade MP, Hon. Michael Okyere Baafi, New Juaben South MP, Hon. Edward Bawa, Bongo MP, as well as the Western Regional NPP Executives, musicians such as Obaapa Christy, Philipa Baafi, Uncle Ato, the clergy, media, and all who attended the event. Your presence and support made a significant impact, and I am truly grateful for your kindness and generosity.
