The Greater Accra Regional Minister, Henry Quartey, has revealed that the La General Hospital project will start in November this year.
He said the project has been absorbed into the government’s Agenda 111 project.
The Minister made the announcement after the Municipal Chief Executive for La Dade-Kotopon, Solomon Kotey Nikoi, stated that residents in the area were dissatisfied that the project was abandoned after the old facility was demolished.
The Minister said that the project would begin in November and be completed in time to meet the needs of the residents.
“On the issue of the La General Hospital, we have been following the matter and I know very well that a decision has been taken at Cabinet and Agenda 111 will move there soon to commence work. As to the time, I don’t know but let’s say that latest by November, the contractor should have moved to site.”
Residents in La protested the stalled project in April of this year.
They complained that the facility’s demolition had made it difficult for them to get immediate health care.
