What is the Health Minister doing at the ministry? – Mintah-Akandoh fumes
Ranking Member on Parliament’s Health Committee, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, has condemned the Health Minister, Kwaku Agyeman Manu for failing to reopen the Korle Bu Renal Unit.
Mr. Mintah Akandoh stated that the Minority Chief Whip had, on the floor of parliament, called on Mr. Agyeman Manu to immediately direct the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital to reopen the renal unit; however, the minister has failed to issue the order.
The Korle Bu Renal Unit has been shut down since May with hospital authorities blaming the situation on the removal of tax and excise duty exemption on medical consumables.
This had created a four million cedi debt for the hospital.https://cdn.vuukle.com/widgets/quiz.html?version=1.11.12Advertisementhttps://b2d627fafc9c26b6bb155e45e2cf2bc9.safeframe.googlesyndication....
