Sixteen-year-old rising star Gilbert secured his first international medal with an impressive jump of 1.73 meters in the Men's T44 High Jump.
Zinabu, who is a national record-holder and multiple medallist, captured gold in the Women's F57 Discus Throw with a record 29.25 meters and silver in the F57 Shot Put with a throw of 8.54 meters.
The medals were presented as a token of gratitude and inspiration, reaffirming the vision of building Ghana into a continental powerhouse in para-sports.
