Mariam Aziz donates polytank to Sunyani Prison
The news was shared by Bonesman TV on Instagram on October 17, 2026, after Mariam Aziz personally reached out to confirm her pledge.
The announcement quickly drew attention online, with the page calling on followers to acknowledge her generosity.
"I have just received a call from Miss Mariam Aziz, Sign Language Interpreter, to His Excellency President John Dramani Mahama. She has kindly pledged a polytank in support of the Sunyani Prisons Washing Bay and Vulcanising Project," the post read.

The project appears to be a grassroots effort designed to equip prisoners with vocational skills and provide practical services such as car washing and tyre vulcanising.
Initiatives of this kind are aimed at reducing recidivism by giving inmates a productive outlet and, ultimately, a livelihood upon release.
Bonesman TV used the platform to appeal for further contributions, emphasising that the project still has room to grow with collective backing.
"If anyone else would like to support this prison initiative, kindly get in touch so we can strengthen the project together. With collective effort, we can achieve meaningful impact," the post added.

Mariam Aziz's role and the gesture's significance
As an aspiring diplomat, Mariam Aziz holds a prominent public-facing role, regularly appearing alongside President Mahama during official broadcasts and state functions.
Her decision to direct her support towards a prison welfare project signals a personal commitment to social causes beyond her professional duties.
The polytank donation, while a practical contribution, carries symbolic weight, representing the kind of small but consistent gestures that grassroots projects rely on to build momentum.

Aziz, who now serves as President Mahama's sign language interpreter, has built a solid career, rising from a University of Ghana (UG) student, where she honed her sign language craft to working hand-in-hand with the man tasked with leading the nation.
Raised by hearing-impaired parents, Aziz began interpreting as a teenager and would later be tapped to interpret during President John Dramani Mahama’s campaign tours.
