Friends of terminally ill Ama Sumani have stepped up their campaign to get her back to the United Kingdom to continue her treatment. They said they have so far raised about 30,000 Pounds to facilitate Madam Sumani’s treatment in London. Madam Sumani was receiving dialysis treatment at a hospital in Cardiff, Wales until one early morning when she was bundled into a plane and flown to Ghana, following the expiration of her visa, and the UK government's refusal to continue to bear the cost of her medical treatment because she is not a citizen. Her plight caught the attention of the media culminating in Joy FM’s Evans Mensah going to interview her on her hospital bed at the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital. The ailing woman was rescued by a philanthropist who paid for four weeks' dialysis treatment after the hospital authorities insisted on a down payment. One of Madam Sumani’s friends, Janet Simons, told Joy FM’s Kojo Oppong Nkrumah that she needed to be taken back to London where she could access treatment that she needs to live, but which is not in Ghana.
