Speaking at the handing over of the Nii Ephraim Health facility on Tuesday, he emphasised his commitment to bringing quality health services close to the people to improve their livelihoods.
“The construction of health facilities such as this is in line with the President’s Akufo-Addo’s Agenda 111 policy geared towards improved access to good health care services regardless of one’s location, he mentioned.
Alexander Afenyo-Markin as part of his social contract to improve the health condition of constituents is working to construct more health infrastructure, the Woarabeba health centre is the eighth in a series of health centres built solely by Afenyo-Markin across the constituency.
“In addition to these clinics, plans are underway for the construction of the ultra-modern Children’s hospital first of its kind in the Central Region also ongoing in Winneba.”
The Deputy Majority leader made a cash donation of ¢10,000 to the Effutu Health Directorate to purchase drugs and other basic essentials for the smooth commencement of work at the facility.
On her part, a representative of the Director of Health Services for the Effutu Municipality commended the Member of Parliament for his continuous support towards the delivery of quality health care in Winneba.
“Comprehensive health care services will be offered to the Woarabeba community and adjoining ones, we hope to address amongst treatment of ailments, immunisation, health education, ante- and post-natal care, growth monitoring and health promotion,” she noted.
Nii Ephraim was a former Constituency Chairman of Effutu National Democratic Congress, NDC and former District Chief Executive of Effutu.
The move forms part of Hon Afenyo-Markin’s vision to honour and reward deserving sons and daughters of Effutu who have served diligently in academia, religion, sports, and leadership amongst others.
