John Atteh Matey, Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) for the Lower Manya Krobo Municipality, paid a surprise visit to the Children’s Ward of St. Martin de Porres Catholic Hospital as part of activities marking the Day of Love.
The visit, which coincided with Valentine’s Day and National Chocolate Day, featured the presentation of chocolates to children on admission and their caregivers. The thoughtful gesture brought smiles and moments of joy to the ward.
Many parents and caregivers described the visit as a pleasant surprise and expressed sincere appreciation for the MCE’s show of compassion and solidarity. The interaction fostered an atmosphere of warmth, love, and encouragement, underscoring the significance of empathy and human connection—particularly for children undergoing medical treatment.
