Former Presidential Advisor on Health under the erstwhile Akufo-Addo administration, Dr. Anthony Nsiah-Asare wants government to allocate funds to complete the Agenda 111 hospitals project in its 2025 budget.
He noted that the Agenda 111 projects will be a “major infrastructure which is going to be a heritage for the whole country.”
He said Government will disappoint Ghanaians if it does not capture the Agenda 111 projects in its 2025 Budget.
“I’m waiting to see what comes in the budget. If they don’t put anything on Agenda 111, I will be so sad and Ghanaians will be sad,” he said in an interview on JoyNews, March 4.
Dr. Nsiah-Asare further argued that contrary to President Mahama’s claim, the amount needed to complete the project is $1.37billion not $1.7billion.
“Even the President himself when he made the State of the Nation Address and said $1.7billion I was asking myself where from this figure. When we were writing the handing over notes at the end of October 2024, it was $1.407billion to complete, as at the end of December 2024, we did some payment so it was $1.37billion not $1.7billion he is talking about,” he explained.
