Former Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has promised that a future NPP government will prioritize the completion of the ambitious Agenda 111 health infrastructure initiative, should the party be voted back into office.
Agenda 111, launched under former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, is a flagship programme designed to address healthcare disparities by constructing district hospitals in underserved areas of Ghana. Each hospital is planned to house 100 beds and provide residential accommodation for medical staff, aiming to significantly expand access to quality healthcare nationwide.
Addressing constituency executives and former party officials in the Greater Accra Region on Wednesday, October 1, Dr. Bawumia highlighted the progress made by the end of 2024, noting that many hospital projects had reached advanced stages of construction. However, he expressed disappointment that work had stalled since the change in administration.
“Many of the hospitals had reached advanced stages of construction by the close of 2024, but progress has stalled. The NPP remains committed to delivering Agenda 111 to expand access to quality healthcare across the country,” Dr. Bawumia emphasized.
He reaffirmed that, if given the mandate, completing Agenda 111 would be a top priority for the NPP, underscoring the party’s commitment to improving health infrastructure and the well-being of all Ghanaians.
