The Minister of Health, Kwaku Agyeman-Manu, has announced that the government has successfully secured €50 million in local funding through the Ministry of Finance for the reconstruction of the La General Hospital.
The hospital was demolished in 2020 due to structural defects, and the new funds will facilitate the reconstruction project.
The minister shared this information with Parliament, highlighting the Ministry of Finance’s efforts in identifying a local funding source for the crucial healthcare infrastructure project.
“At the 37th session of the cabinet, the president directed the Ministers of Trade and Industry, Health and Finance to find alternative sources of funding to recommence the project. Through the efforts of the three-man committee, the Minister of Finance has now identified funds locally to continue the project with the same simple work scope but a reviewed price of 50 million Euro,” he said.
