Christmas wishes do come true and it did for the children at Dilkusha Home when they received a 26 seater bus from Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama today.

Bainimarama says his office gave the 26 seater bus as a Christmas gift to the children after a conversation he held with a young woman earlier this month.

19-year-old Archana Reddy says she was thrilled that her wish came true this Christmas and she does not want anything else.

The 26 seater bus is worth $129,000 and the children at the Dilkusha home will start using it this afternoon.

Home's Head Deaconess, Leba Laveti says this bus will be used to transport two of their girls to their special schools in Suva and it will also be used for other visitations.
