Kwamikkrom (V/R), April 26, GNA - An 11-year-old cripple, deaf and dumb boy was buried in a local cemetery here at the weekend, 10 months after his parents had abandoned him.

The cripple, Dziwornu Ahiabu was catered for by Madam Nura Alhassan, a local trader.

According to Madam Alhassan, Dziwornu's father, Mawuli Ahiabu, a chain-saw operator of Dzodze and the mother, Esi Mawuena of Yeviefe in Togo, abandoned their son at Kwamikron in July 2009.

She said she took care of the cripple whose parents were her co-tenants for over 10 years and that she received only GH¢ 3.00 from a local church for the care of the cripple.
