The DCE (in Smock) presenting the roofing sheets to Mr. Amoako<\/strong><\/p>\n

The District Chief Executive (DCE) of Achiase, Richmond Agyabeng Amponsah, has surprised a person with disability (PWD) who is a farmer in the district. <\/p>\n

The PWD, Mr.
\nAmoako, struggles to walk even with the help of crutches. That notwithstanding,
\nhe is into serious farming; he possesses several tracts of acres of cash and
\nfood crops. Besides, he is into animal rearing such as goats, fowls, pigs,
\namong others.<\/p>\n

During this
\nyear\u2019s Annual Farmers\u2019 Day celebration in the District held at Akyem Nyankomase,
\nthe DCE donated a packet of roofing sheet to the farmer. <\/p>\n

Speaking to DAILY
\nGUIDE <\/em><\/strong>on the sidelines of the celebration, Mr. Amponsah stated that he
\nwas touched by the hard work of the farmer despite his condition.<\/p>\n

He said he
\ndid the donation because during inspection of farms ahead of the celebration,
\nhe observed that the roofing of Mr. Amoako\u2019s pigsty was in a bad state.<\/p>\n

On his part,
\nMr. Amoako told DAILY GUIDE <\/em><\/strong>that he did not let his current state define him
\nbecause he believes ability is not in physical stature. He, therefore,
\nencouraged other PWDs not to resort to begging; instead, they should get
\nsomething meaningful to do with their hands.<\/p>\n

Mr. Amoako
\nalso won the disability farmer of the district and apart from the DCE\u2019s
\nsurprise he received a spraying machine, six machetes, a piece of cloth, a wheelbarrow,
\nweedicides, among other farm inputs.<\/p>\n

Best Farmer<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mr. Peter
\nMensah, a native of Nyankomase, was adjudged the overall best farmer of the
\ndistrict. He received a tricycle known in the local parlance as \u2018Aboboyaa\u2019, a spraying
\nmachine, among other farm inputs. <\/p>\n

Abraham
\nQuaggrey and Rev. James Aduyaw were adjudged first and second runners-up
\nrespectively. <\/p>\n

A total of
\n20 farmers were awarded on the day. All award winners received various forms of
\nfarm inputs from the District Assembly and the District Food and Agricultural
\nDepartment.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
