Ghanaian entrepreneur, industrialist, philanthropist, and real estate mogul, Nana Kwame Bediako, also known as Freedom Jacob Caesar has donated relief items to some survivors of the recent Turkey-Syria earthquake.
According to Freedom, he was touched by the damages and hence the need to offer support to the survivors.
"I have been watching television and the damages and whatever has happened in Turkey, just moved me to build tent-cities so I can shelter those whose have lost their homes, families and everything"
"The tent-city comes with a mattress and water-beds, heater and showers in it"
"I pray that others are touched so they can help the people of Turkey"
It will be recalled that a 7.8-magnitude earthquake has shaken Turkey and Syria, killing at least 568 people, according to authorities
The quake was centred in the town of Pazarcik in Kahramanmaras province, about 20 miles from the city of Gaziantep, at a depth of six miles and there were several powerful aftershocks.
Several buildings have been destroyed as people gathered outside on snowy streets in Pazarcik, according to images on state broadcaster TRT.
Rescue workers and residents using flashlights were searching through piles of tangled metal and concrete rubble in one of the stricken cities.
Freedom Jacob Caesar is also the founder and CEO of the Kwarleyz Group.
