The Ghana Amputee Football Association wishes to congratulate Mr. Ivor Greenstreet on his election as the flagbearer of the Convention People’s Party (CPP).

The Election of Mr. Ivor Greenstreet comes at a crucial time when disability organizations and allied institutions are calling for a closer look at the attitude towards Persons with Disability (PWDs) and more support for activities that seek to promote their cause.

The Association sees this election as a vindication for those who have stood for equal treatment of PWDs in every human endeavor in the face of constant neglect of their needs as an integral part of national programmes.

It is our hope that his election would help in projecting the cause of PWDs, whilst emphasizing the need for them to be given the necessary push to contribute their quota to national development.

We would also like to use this opportunity to appeal to government to honor all promises made to PWDs and related organizations by paying outstanding bills that are hanging on the necks of the association as a result the inability to pay approved budgets for immediate past programmes, especially sporting activities.

Once again, we congratulate Mr. Greestreet and wish him well in his quest to lead the nation and to make a case for PWDS.

Signed
REV RICHARD NII AMRTEY ADESAH
CHAIRMAN
