The President of the Ghana Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) Entrepreneurs and Business Associ­ation, Mr Richard Offei, has called for the allocation of a special fund to support PWDs entrepreneurs.

He explained that the allocation of such a fund would help enhance the businesses of PWDs entrepre­neurs and prevent those businesses from collapsing.

Mr Offei was speaking to journal­ists in an interview on the sideline at the launch of the persons with disabilities (PWDs) Entrepreneurs Empowerment Summit held in Accra on Wednesday.

Organised by the Ghana Persons with Disabilities Entrepreneurs and Business Association, the event was on the theme, 'Empowering Persons with Disability through Entrepreneurship.' It was aimed at Empowering PWD entrepreneurs in Ghana with the necessary skills, resources and support to succeed in their busi­nesses by way of contributing to economic growth and inclusivity of the business community.
