Dr. Joseph Gerald Tetteh Nyanyofio, the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) parliamentary candidate for the La Dadekotopon seat, has committed to prioritise the development of the La General Hospital if won in the 2024 elections.
The hospital was dismantled in 2020 to make way for a new one, but the project appears to have been abandoned.
Addressing to the media on the margins of his inauguration, Nyanyofio stated that the hospital’s building is a top priority for him and the NPP.
“The La General Hospital was supposed to give us some good health because the NDC had been in government and had seen the dilapidated situation in which people were accessing medical services and the president in his wisdom decided to come and cut sod for the commencement for a reconstruction project and whatever the reasons are, it is now or never,” he said.
Nyanyofio said he will work with the government to ensure that the project is completed as soon as possible.
He also promised to provide better healthcare services to the people of La Dadekotopon.
The hospital was a major healthcare facility in the area, and its closure has caused a lot of inconvenience to people.
