The spokesperson for the campaign of Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the New Patriotic Party’s flagbearer for the 2024 election, Dennis Miracles Aboagye, has announced that over forty hospitals built under the Nana Addo-led government’s Agenda 111 projects are ready for commissioning.
Speaking on Joy News’s AM Show with Benjamin Akakpo on Monday, November 4, 2024, Miracles stated that these hospitals are fully constructed and ready for use.
“Between 45 and 47 of them will be commissioned before the end of the year,” he said during the show. “They will be commissioned and put to use.”
He added, “As we speak, most of them are nearly complete in terms of the installation of their equipment, and about five of them are in the Ashanti Region.”
According to him, Dr Bawumia is committed to continuing and completing the remaining projects if given the chance to lead the country in the upcoming elections.
The government aims to build a total of 104 mega hospitals across the country, and this project has cost the nation approximately $7.65 billion.
The Agenda 111 projects, officially known as Ghana’s Priority Health Infrastructure Projects, aim to provide quality healthcare across the country. The initiative comprises seven regional hospitals, two regional psychiatric hospitals (for the northern and middle belt zones), and one new national psychiatric hospital in Accra.
