The Communication Director of the governing New Patriotic Party in the Upper East Region Peter Ayinbisa has cautioned the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) to desist from attempting to take credit from the yet-to-launch Dialysis center initiative at the Regional hospital.

He said:“Another issue raised by the NDC which is germane but poorly premised is the lack of a dialysis center at the regional hospital. The absence of a dialysis center means that patients with kidney-related conditions must travel to other regions to access dialysis services, which can be costly and time-consuming.

“While we support the call for such a critical facility, the known convention around the country shows that government alone may not suffice in providing us this facility. We, therefore, support the calls for benevolent sons and daughters of the upper east and beyond to lend their unflinching support to this worthy course.

“In addition, the government has also stated that it is working on measures to prevent kidney-related conditions and promote healthy lifestyles. This includes initiatives to increase awareness about the importance of regular health check-ups, proper nutrition, and physical activity.

However, he stressed that the initiative was started by a doctor at the Regional Hospital

“I want to put it on record that, is not the NDC who is initiating the dialysis center project”

Dr. Emmanuel Nsobila Akatibo, a Physician Specialist with the Upper East Regional hospital initiated a serious campaign to get a dialysis center in the region.
