Mr. Kofi Job, a renowned road contractor based in Kumasi and self-styled evangelist, spread Christmas cheer by donating various items to widows in the Kumasi Metropolis.
This heartwarming gesture, carried out on Monday (23 December), a continuation of his long-standing tradition of sharing with the less privileged in society over the last few years.
In partnership with Kumasi-based Otec FM, Mr. Job, accompanied by his wife and officials from the radio station, distributed the items to the beneficiaries at the station’s premises.
Some of the items donated included 1,000 live chickens, bags of rice, liters of cooking oil, and undisclosed amounts of cash.
The widows, who had registered a day earlier, expressed their gratitude as their names were called to receive the packages.
During the presentation, Mr. Job shared his motivation for the gesture.
“Supporting the needy is a daily routine for me,” he said, thanking Otec FM for the opportunity to reach out this year. Acknowledging the peaceful elections earlier this month, he praised Ghanaians for their prayers and responsible conduct.
“We can do what we are doing now because of peace in the country,” Mr. Job stated, urging continued unity and goodwill among citizens.
Maame Adwoa Ampofo, a 68-year-old retired farmer, tearfully recounted her struggles since her husband’s passing six years ago.
“This kindness means I can enjoy a decent meal this Christmas,” she said gratefully.
“With my many grandchildren, these items will help us celebrate the season better,” another 55-year-old beneficiary named Grace Eshun, expressed her relief.
