A communication team member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Edward Mortey has described President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and the New Patriotic Party (NPP) as the biggest scam to ever hit Ghana.
According to him, the President and the ruling government are not being honest with the recently launched Agenda 111 Hospital Project.
Mr. Mortey argues that the President promised 88 hospitals last year but failed to deliver.
According to him, Ghanaians have no reasons to believe him when he comes back to promise new projects of putting up hospitals in the next 18 months.
Edward Mortey explained, “I’m making this commentary based on the fact that Akufo-Addo and the NPP, they told Ghanaians that in 18 months they were going to change the destiny of Ghana.
Edward Mortey insists that in the midst of all the failed promises, the Akufo-Addo government must come clean on the source of funding for the project.
He stressed that government must be honest on how much each hospital will cost under the Agenda 111 Hospitals Project.
Through the project, the government is aiming to bridge the infrastructure gap in the health sector.
By 2023, 88 new hospitals should be completed and handed over for use.
According to President Akufo-Addo, some 20,000 Ghanaians will gain employment under the Agenda 111 Hospitals Project.
