Black Stars midfielder Kwasi Sibo has donated a Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machine to Kronum Afracho Polytechnic Hospital in Kumasi to help newborn babies experiencing breathing difficulties.
The equipment was provided through the Ghana midfielder’s Sibo Foundation, with the aim of improving neonatal care and supporting the survival of vulnerable babies who require respiratory assistance.
A CPAP machine delivers a continuous flow of air to help keep a baby’s airways open. It is used to provide breathing support to newborns struggling with respiratory problems and is an important part of their treatment.
Sibo’s donation is intended to increase the hospital’s capacity to care for babies who need help breathing. It also offers support to families facing the potentially life-threatening consequences of severe respiratory difficulties in newborns.
The intervention underlines the role of private contributions in helping healthcare facilities obtain essential medical equipment, particularly hospitals providing care for vulnerable babies.
It also reflects Sibo’s efforts to support his community and use his football profile to assist people in need. The midfielder has continued to pursue charitable initiatives through his foundation while maintaining his professional career.
Sibo plays for Libyan club Asswehly SC and is currently preparing with his team-mates for their CAF Champions League preliminary-round return-leg fixture against Esperance this weekend.
He is also expected to return to the Black Stars squad for next month’s doubleheader against Somalia in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
