Accra, Aug. 22, GNA – Escof Zinnia Foundation (EZF), a charitable non-government organisation, (NGO) in collaboration with Samuel Amo Tobbin Foundation (SATF) have provided medical services and health education to the people of Kpandai at a community durbar in the Northern Region to enhance their lives.
Madam Esther Coffie, the Chief Executive Officer of EZF, made this known to journalists in Accra and stressed the significance of the collaborative effort between the two Foundations in offering essential medical services and health education.
She said the two organisations acknowledged the importance of access to healthcare and the challenges faced by underserved communities like Kpandai, hence the programme.
Madam Coffie advised the citizenry to avoid self-medication, which she said was dangerous to their health and well-being, adding that, “In our fast-paced lives, it’s understandable that we often resort to quick medication.”
Mr Ebenezer Otoo, the General Manager of the Samuel Amo Tobbin Foundation called for unity and peace among the people of the Northern Region and urged them to address their grievances through peaceful means.
He said: “Violence only perpetuates more violence, but open dialogue, understanding, and cooperation are effective ways to resolve disputes.”
He urged the community to embrace dialogue and peaceful solutions to disagreement.
The General Manager entreated parents to instil the value of respect and tolerance in the youth, who he said were integral in shaping the region’s future.
Mr Otoo admonished the community members to live in peace and harmony for the progress of the region.
