Etwereso Hemaa Official speaks on helping parents of quintuplets
When asked how she felt about leading the effort to raise funds to help the parents of the quintuplets, she said.
''I felt just as I feel when a mother is okay ... When I visited them at the hospital, they were quite reluctant because many videos had gone out without soliciting help.
''It took nine days for me to raise funds to buy the items. The parents of the babies were overwhelmed when I presented the cash and items,'' Etwereso Hemaa Official told YEN.com.gh.
