Expectant woman in labour transported on wooden board by midwife to clinic in Ashanti Region

An expectant mother in labour has been spotted being transported on a makeshift wooden board to a clinic in the Sekyere East District in the Ashanti Region.

Information gathered has it that, communities in the Sekyere East District lack basic social amenities, including potable water and electricity.

The absence of well-resourced health facilities coupled with bad roads in the cocoa-growing district compels inhabitants to improvise in crises to save lives. 

In one such instance, the expectant mother in labour had to be carried on a shabby makeshift wooden structure to a distant clinic to deliver.

Heart-rending photos of a midwife who had to improvise to create a wooden structure with the help of townfolks to enable them to transport the expectant woman to a clinic have surfaced on social media.
