Deputy Minister for Education, In-charge of TVET and MP for Abuakwa North constituency in the Eastern Region, Hon. Gifty Twum-Ampofo has donated foodstuffs to over 35,000 people in the area.

The donation forms part of her annual contribution of sharing foodstuff to the constituents.

She said the global economic crisis has made things very difficult for many people to get money to purchase foodstuffs for their various families for the Christmas festive, hence the need to support them.

The Deputy Minister also appealed to Ghanaian traders especially those from her constituency to reduce their items so people to patronize them in this period of economic hardship.
