The ever joyous new car owner, Mrs. Joycelyn Boampong, who was awarded the best Midwife in the Kwahu East District by the Member of Parliament for Abetifi constituency, Bryan Acheampong has said, she has been practicing the midwifery profession for the past eight years.
Mrs. Joycelyn, who held a one on one interview with Kwame Koranteng on Anɔpa Dawuro on Republic Fm, gave an account on how she found her herself in Kwahu to practice her profession.
According to her, for the first time, she was posted to Kwahu South and was subsequently repatriated to the Kwahu East to continue her profession due to her hard work. From all indications, Joycelyn has indeed been the favorite among her peers.
She said, when she was first posted to a small community in the Kwahu East from Kwahu South after her director advised her to pursue midwifery since she is so much of potentials, she really shed tears because she has always lived her life in the nation’s capital, Accra.
“When I completed school, my director told me he would take to me another community because my work duties were in several dispensation and I said to myself, how can I go to such a community because there was no electricity and telecommunication network. I have lived all my life in Accra and so I cried a lot because I didn’t see any of my family members,” she said.
In her submissions, though there was no network and electricity but there are many people in that community, but the clinic in the community is very good and so the people needed somebody. According to her, the people recognized her hard work and she was really the people’s favorite.
Giving an account on her postings, she said, “I served under the Kwahu South for three and when the Kwahu South and West was divided, another division came from South and I was made to Kwahu East.”.
