Ghanaian president, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has pledged his total allegiance to the Agenda 111 Project, which he says, forms a crucial part of his government’s efforts to improve Ghana’s healthcare sector.
The president said he was confident that the agenda 111 project, commissioned on August 17, 2021 to ensure the construction of 111 hospitals across the country, will be completed before he leaves office.
“A great deal of the preparatory work for the execution of this ambitious project has been completed. It is my determination that the entire project will be completed before I leave office on 7th January 2025.” He stated.
While speaking at the 60 years celebration of the University of Ghana Medical School in Accra on Friday, 25th March 2022, president Akufo-Addo further stated that “Good health is fundamental to all we do. It is the reason access to quality healthcare is a right that is enshrined in the constitution.”
He went on to say that the Agenda 111 project, upon its completion, will make Ghana “a centre of medical excellence and a preferred destination for medical tourism in Africa.”
