President Akufo-Addo says the government’s Agenda 111 Hospital Projects will create approximately 67,000 jobs upon completion.
The President indicated that that each hospital, capable of employing over 100 people, marks Agenda 111 as a transformative initiative.
Speaking at the commissioning of the Adansi North Hospital in Fomena, Ashanti Region, President Akufo-Addo assured Ghanaians that his administration remains committed to completing the hospitals.
“There’s an average number of 120 workers on each construction site, and when completed, an average of 559 persons will be employed in a district hospital, 1,343 in the regional hospital, and 947 in each psychiatric hospital. This means that 67, 635 people will be employed in the Agenda 111 Hospitals,” President Akufo-Addo said.
The project, which began in 2014, was repeatedly postponed owing to funding concerns.
The President emphasised that the hospital’s completion demonstrated the government’s commitment to providing modern health facilities that met contemporary healthcare standards across the country.
