Elders in the Ashaiman Zongo community have expressed gratitude to Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia for a scholarship opportunity granted to a native of Ashaiman to be trained as a medical doctor in Cuba.

At a community engagement program in Ashaiman organized by Iqra Radio on Thursday, the Zongo Chiefs of Ashaiman, while requesting more scholarships and development opportunities, expressed their appreciation for the inclusion of their brilliant son, Mohammed Muntari, among a group of 40 students sent to Cuba to study medicine by the Zongo Development Fund.

In 2020, the Zongo Development Fund sent 40 brilliant but needy students from various Zongo communities to be trained as medical doctors in Cuba.

One of them was Mohammed Muntari, a brilliant student from an underprivileged background in Ashaiman, whose excellent all-As WASSCE results went viral on social media, prompting people to appeal for funds to support his tertiary education.

The appeal caught the attention of Vice President Bawumia, who facilitated his inclusion in the list of those to be sent to Cuba.
