President John Dramani Mahama has revealed that Cabinet is awaiting a detailed report from the Minister of Health on the current status and level of completion of the Agenda 111 hospitals project.
Speaking at the Presidential Media Encounter at the Jubilee House on Wednesday, the President said the findings of the report will guide government decisions on the best way forward to ensure the completion of the facilities.
“Cabinet is awaiting a report from the Honourable Minister of Health on the status and stage of completion of the Agenda 111 hospitals to determine a way forward for their completion,” Mr. Mahama stated.
The President reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to strengthening Ghana’s health infrastructure, announcing that over GH¢2 billion will be invested in the sector between now and 2028. He noted that the 2025 budget has already allocated GH¢200 million as an initial investment to accelerate the construction, expansion, and modernization of hospitals, clinics, and health centres nationwide.
“Whether in remote rural communities or high-density urban centres, our aim is the same — a health facility within reach of every Ghanaian,” he emphasized.
Launched in 2021, the Agenda 111 project was designed to build district and regional hospitals across the country to improve access to healthcare. However, the initiative has suffered delays, with many facilities still incomplete or at various stages of construction.
President Mahama assured that his government remains determined to finish what was started, stressing that healthcare delivery is a top priority for his administration.
