Story by Correspondent Isaac Asare

Twenty Five year old Ernest Bugri, who hails from Zebilla-Tanga in the the Bawku West District of the Upper East Region is in dire need of Twelve Thousand Ghana Cedis to undergo surgery at the Tamale Teaching Hospital. 

Master Bugri, a former student of Zebilla Senior High School was diagnosed of a brain tumour known in medical terms as Haemanigio Blastoma, last year.  

His condition according to medical report can only be remedied through an immediate surgery in order not to worsen his predicament.

 Narrating his condition to Radio Ghana at his residence, Master Bugri said the disease began when he was in the second year at the Zebilla SHS, but did not consider it as a serious ailment until he was repeatedly taken ill. 

While in school, Bugri who was known to be one of the brilliant students in class could hardly sit throughout lesson periods in the classroom due to the pain and his inability to absorb what was being taught.  

He said during his final year, he could not write some of his papers because his condition worsened before the examination got underway. After completion, he was exposed to different local herbs but to no avail. 

Presently,  his condition has deteriorated to the extent that he can hardly walk, sit or perform any other activity because he is always wavering and dangling as if he is drunk. 

He said since his family is unable to raise the said amount to undergo surgery, his total survival hinges on donations from the general public and corporate bodies. 

According to him, his condition is getting no better but rather sending him to his early grave.  

The mother of Master Abugri, who is frustrated in her search for funds, says she is willing to offer him to any capable and interested individual.

 She said however pleaded with the general public to come to their aid to enable the son live a normal life. 

Interested persons and groups should channel their support through ADB Bank Bolgatanga branch to Daniel Agana with the account number   9012000067781301.
