Speaking to group of journalists as part of the minority’s nationwide inspection of the abandoned hospitals to inspect the Sekyere Afram Plains district hospital in Kumawu, he said if the government respects Ghanaians they would have completed the health projects started by the Mahama administration in order to serve the needs of the governed.
The Ranking Member on the health committee in parliament said “What I have seen here is affront to the mandate the good people of this county have given to the president.
