Possessing a birth certificate remains one of the most important forms of legal identification. It serves as proof of citizenship and allows access to education, employment, and other national services. Yet, many Ghanaians, especially those in low-income areas, still struggle to obtain this vital document. It is in response to this challenge that Ewurabena Aubynn, Member of Parliament for Ablekuma North, is set to roll out a Free Birth Certificate Registration exercise for residents of her constituency.
The initiative, organised in partnership with the Awula Foundation, is targeted at “Friends of Ewura in the Ghettos” and seeks to make legal identification accessible to everyone. The exercise is scheduled for Tuesday, 21st October to Friday, 24th October 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. each day. Constituents are encouraged to take advantage of the opportunity to obtain their official birth certificates at no cost.
To register, applicants will be required to provide their full name, parent’s name, date of birth, parent’s occupation, and Ghana Card for verification.
Since her entry into Parliament on 22nd July 2025, Ewurabena Aubynn has shown a clear commitment to the welfare of her constituents. She has already introduced several practical initiatives aimed at supporting education and youth development. Not long ago, she provided mattresses for fresh Senior High School students from the constituency who had gained admission to various schools across the country, a gesture that many parents described as thoughtful and timely.
The free birth certificate registration is seen as another step in her effort to uplift her constituency and make essential public services accessible to all.
In conversations with some residents, many described the MP’s approach as down-to-earth and people-oriented. They said her early months in office have been marked by action rather than promises. For them, Ewurabena Aubynn represents a new kind of leadership — one that pays attention to the needs of ordinary people.
Interested constituents are to contact the following numbers for assistance and further information: 0509 668 442 / 0243 132 908.
