The
Expatriate
Palestinian
Community
has
built
and
furnished
a
three-unit
classroom
block
and
a
Mosque
for
the
Yizebisi
community
in
the
Mamprugu
Moagduri
District
of
the
North
East
Region.
The
philanthropic
act
was
also
followed
by
the
handover
of
a
newly
constructed
borehole
by
the
same
group
to
the
community.
The
Palestinian
Ambassador
to
Ghana,
Mr
Abdalfatah
Ahmed
Khalil
Alsatarri,
speaking
at
the
handover
ceremony
indicated
that
investing
in
education
and
ensuring
the
general
wellbeing
of
rural
dwellers
was
very
important.
He
said
it
was
important
that
people
were
not
disadvantaged,
especially
when
it
comes
to
access
to
basic
social
amenities
and
education
for
children
and
young
people.
The
Ambassador
acknowledged
the
efforts
of
the
government
in
ensuring
development
in
every
part
of
the
country,
however,
he
stated
that
the
burden
could
not
be
left
on
the
government
alone.
He,
therefore,
expressed
gratitude
to
the
expatriate
community
of
Palestinians
around
the
world
for
their
generous
contributions
towards
supporting
humanity.
“Ghana
is
my
second
home.
I
have
spent
some
years
in
Ghana
and
now
see
the
people
in
this
country
as
members
of
my
family
that
is
why
I
will
support
every
initiative
that
promotes
the
development
of
Ghana.”
“I
thank
the
funders
of
this
laudable
project
for
their
kindness
towards
the
people
of
Mamprugu
Moagduri,”
he
added.
The
District
Chief
Executive
(DCE)
of
Mamprugu
Moagduri,
Mr
Abu
Adam,
thanked
the
Ambassador
for
the
support
and
assured
that
the
facilities
would
be
well
maintained.
He
also
appealed
to
individuals
and
institutions
to
emulate
the
Ambassador
and
the
entire
Expatriate
Palestinian
Community,
saying
“such
people
have
good
hearts
and
if
we
learn
to
be
as
generous
as
they
are,
the
world
would
be
a
better
place.”
