In a bid to curb the spread of coronavirus in the country, the founder and president of Angel Group, Dr Kwaku Oteng, has donated items worth GHS800,000 to hospitals, orphanages and kayayei in Kumasi.

The items include bags of rice, cooking oil, PPE and boxes of Adonko hand sanitisers.

At the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital, the medical director, Prof Baffour Opoku, expressed gratitude to Dr Oteng for his support “in these critical times”.

The team also visited the Kumasi Central Prisons where DDP Samuel Owusu Amponsah, Ashanti Regional Commander of the Ghana Prisons Service, received the items.

He also thanked Dr Oteng for the kind gesture.

The itinerant female load carriers or kayayei were also not left as they were given bags of rice, cooking oil, gloves and Adonko sanitisers.

On Thursday, April 2, 2020, Adonko Company Limited launched ‘Adonko hand sanitiser’, a new product on the market in response to President Nana Akufo-Addo’s appeal to businesses to support and help contain the spread of the virus.

Twenty thousand bottles of the sanitiser were shared to residents in Kumasi for free.

Speaking at the launch, the Chief Executive Officer of Angel Broadcasting Network, Mr Samuel Kofi Acheampong, said: Dr Oteng took into consideration the general well-being of Ghanaians and as such, decided to unveil this new product to make up for the initial shortage on the market, beat down the price so every Ghanaian can own a sanitiser in these critical times”.

He urged Ghanaians to purchase the original Adonko hand sanitiser as it has the ability to seal all pores in the palm as well as dries faster and has 70 per cent alcohol in it.
