Agenda 111 hospitals – Akufo-Addo Hands over Vision to Mahama

Outgoing President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has appealed to President-elect John Dramani Mahama to prioritize the completion of the “Agenda 111” hospital project, a flagship initiative aimed at transforming Ghana’s healthcare infrastructure.

Speaking to Parliament on January 3 in parliament in his official final State of the Nation Adress (SONA), Akufo-Addo reflected on the importance of the project, describing it as a critical component of efforts to strengthen the country’s health system.

“The most important intervention is the Agenda 111 project that we have embarked upon. I am hoping that the incoming Mahama administration will ensure that the project is completed so we can have our health infrastructure in a sound state,” he stated.

He emphasized the groundwork his administration laid and expressed optimism that the initiative would be carried forward. “

Over the years, I have worked diligently to build a reliable health system. I am optimistic that this initiative will be seen through to the end for the benefit of all Ghanaians,” he added.

The Agenda 111 initiative was launched to address gaps in healthcare by constructing 111 district hospitals and two psychiatric facilities across Ghana.

While three hospitals have been commissioned and several others are at varying stages of completion, progress on many sites remains slow.

Limited funding and logistical challenges have delayed the project, leaving a significant portion still in the early construction phases.
