She acknowledged President Weah’s commendable efforts in covering the medical bills of persons living with albinism and called for increased support in this area. Madam Kpotoe emphasized the importance of raising awareness about albinism and fostering acceptance and inclusivity to create a more understanding and compassionate society for everyone.
