It was all joy on the faces of mothers and babies at the Neonatal Intensive care Unit, NICU, of the Eastern Regional Hospital, Koforidua when the Founder and Chairman of the Kabaka Foundation, a charity organization, Nana Owiredu Wadie distributed items to them to mark his birthday. He also used the celebration to settle the debt of 17 thousand Ghana cedis of some mothers and their babies who had been discharged but are unable to settle their bills.

The Kabaka Foundation is a charitable organization that believes in spreading the love of God by putting smiles on the faces of the needy and the underprivileged in the society through impactful social interventions and projects focused on orphans, nursing mothers, street children, the sick and vulnerable in society.

For the past six years, the Kabaka Foundation, has been extending a helping hand to the Eastern Regional Hospital in Koforidua. It is currently constructing a one-storey ultra-modern Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, NICU, at a cost of one point nine million Ghana cedis for the hospital which is about 60 percent completed.

For his birthday this year which falls on the 28th of September, Nana Owiredu Wadie who is also the Nkosuohene of Kwahu- Nkwatia through his foundation donated some items to the maternity mothers and babies of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, NICU, of the Hospital.

The items included diapers, baby wipes, toilet papers, cartons of milo and milk, bottled water and drinks. The foundation as well donated two table-top refrigerators and two microwave ovens to be used by patients who will be admitted at the special wards of the unit which was renovated and expanded by the Kabaka foundation last year and was adopted and named “Yaa Boatemaa Special Wards” after the mother of Nana Owiredu Wadie.

The Medical Director of the Eastern Regional Hospital, Dr Arko Akoto-Ampaw noted that the hospital for some years now always looked forward to receiving generously from the Founder of the Kabaka Foundation, especially on his birthday.

He expressed gratitude to him and further asked him to continue to do more to alleviate the plight of the clients of the hospital as God continues to bless him.
