The Director of Communications of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Richard Ahiagbah has stated that he is going to promote a people-centered, outcome-driven health policy regime in Ghana.
This was after he went through a near-death experience at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) after he was involved in an accident on Saturday, July 27.
The accident occurred on the Kumasi-Accra highway near Aduapompo.
The doctors at KATH discharged him on Friday, August 16. Sharing his experience at the KATH on his X platform, Ahiagbah thanked the doctors for the professionalism with which they handled him.
“I am out of the hospital today with a few more knots to untie, but I am back on my feet again.
“Thank God almighty, and thank you all for your prayers and support. To the dedicated team led by Dr. Charles K. Dally, the catalyst; Dr. Otu Boateng, the signature man; Dr. Roland Azorliade, the wise one; and Professor Peter Ambe, latter-day addition to the team and the host of nurses, I say God bless you for doctoring and nursing me back onto my feet.
“To Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH), led by the dynamic Prof. Addai-Mensah, I owe a debt of support and advocacy to ensure that KATH continues to improve healthcare outcomes for Ghanaians.”
“Fighting to hold on to dear life at KATH has been very frightening and painful. But through it all, I have learned firsthand the extreme deficiencies and prospects of Ghana’s healthcare delivery system. From this experience will arise a Turning Point Foundation to promote a people-centered, outcome-driven health policy regime in Ghana. May God bless and deliver us all from evil,” he said.
