No project abandoned, says Health Minister
The Minister of Health, Kwaku Agyeman-Manu, has refuted claims suggesting that the government has abandoned existing health projects for the Agenda 111.
Critics including former president John Dramani Mahama have accused the government of abandoning hospital projects started by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) when it was in power.
However, Agyeman-Manu said the claims are untrue because most of the projects inherited by his ministry have been completed and handed over while some are still under construction.
Speaking at a media briefing on Wednesday (18 August), the health minister asked critics to get proof of such projects and not make unfounded statements.
“The government alone is mobilising to 12 sites including Shama and La. So next week you will see work even now ongoing in these places.
“I am planning a tour. Those of you who want to join me, in the second week of September with my infrastructure department for us to actually show to Ghanaians what is actually at the sites we are talking about,” Agyeman-Manu said.
