The Member of Parliament for Abuakwa South, Dr. Kingsley Agyemang, has extended a lifeline to a widow identified as Serwa by donating GH¢20,000 to help her establish a provisions shop and rebuild her life.
The gesture followed an emotional media interview where Serwa recounted the hardships she faced after losing her husband.
According to her, she was thrown out of her home and left struggling to cater for her children, circumstances that compelled her to engage in hookups as a means of survival.
During her appearance on the programme, Serwa openly shared her challenges and expressed her determination to abandon the practice and pursue a more sustainable source of livelihood. Her story touched many viewers and quickly gained attention on social media.
The video of the interview was subsequently forwarded to Dr. Kingsley Agyemang, who was moved by her plight and decided to intervene.
In response, the Abuakwa South legislator donated GH¢20,000 to support Serwa’s plans to establish a provisions shop, providing her with an opportunity to earn a living and care for her children through legitimate means.
The MP is also reported to have assured Serwa of additional support towards the successful establishment and growth of the business, underscoring his commitment to helping vulnerable members of society regain their footing.
The intervention has been widely praised by residents and social media users, many of whom described it as a timely act of compassion that could significantly transform the lives of the widow and her children.
Serwa expressed gratitude for the support, saying the assistance had renewed her hope and strengthened her resolve to turn her life around and provide a better future for her family.
