Ibrahim Mahama Flies Out Leukaemia Patient To South Africa @ Mind Boggling Cost

A renowned Ghanaian business Mogul and Philanthropist, Mr Ibrahim Mahama, has once again demonstrated his commitment to making a difference in the lives of those in need.

This time, his act of kindness is focused on little Lisa Laryea, a 10-year-old student, whose battle with critical health condition – Leukaemia – has touched the hearts of many, especially on social media.

Subsequently, after footing a bill of over $110,000 cost for the treatment, Mr Ibrahim Mahama has personally ensured that Lisa, accompanied by her mother, were flown to South Africa via an emergency charted Air Ambulance on Sunday November 24, 2024 to seek specialised care that would give her a fighting chance at recovery.

Mr Ibrahim Mahama was present at the Kotoka International Airport Terminal 2 to ensure the smooth process of their medical journey.

The cost of the entire treatment is estimated around 2 million South African Rand or USD 110,000.

Special Aide to Mr Ibrahim Mahama, Rafik Mahama said “when we learned about Lisa’s condition on social media, we knew we had to step in and help. Every child deserves the opportunity to live a healthy and happy life.

“When it comes to saving human life, our Father and Boss, Mr. Ibrahim Mahama doesn’t consider the cost.

“He has unlimited empathy towards humanity. He gives the instructions to everyone and we work to make sure we get the job done properly. Because the flight was 6am scheduled chartered flight, I got to the Ridge Hospital at 3am today, we wanted to make sure we get everything done properly, with regards to conveying Lisa from the hospital to the airport. The Doctors are on standby in South Africa. By God’s grace, Lisa will come back stronger.”

For Melissa’s family, this act of kindness has been nothing short of a miracle. The young girl’s mother, overwhelmed with emotion, expressed her deep gratitude to Mr Ibrahim Mahama.

“We never imagined that someone of his stature would care so deeply about our daughter’s health. He has given Melissa the gift of hope, and we will be forever grateful,” they said.

The act of flying 10-year-old Lisa overseas for the urgent medical treatment she needs has not only provided a glimmer of hope for the family, but has also stirred a wave of support and commendation by a cross section of Ghanaians.

As little Lisa embarks on her journey to healing, Ibrahim Mahama’s remarkable generosity continues to serve as a beacon of compassion, reminding us all that acts of kindness, no matter how big or small, can create ripples of positive change in society.
