Health Ministry denies claims of completed Agenda 111 hospitals

The Ministry of Health has refuted claims by former Finance Minister Dr. Amin Adams that three hospitals under the Agenda 111 project were completed, equipped, and commissioned before the previous government left office.

The Ministry stated that recent inspections of hospital sites in Trede and Kokoben revealed essential medical installations, including imaging and mortuary equipment, were still missing.

They clarified that none of the 111 district hospitals is operational, and the estimated cost to complete the project is $1.589 billion.

The hospitals in Trede, Kokoben, and Ahanta, although commissioned, remain under construction with a 95% completion rate.

An additional $8.03 million is required to make them fully operational. The Ministry urged the public to be patient as efforts to complete the project continue.
