In a bid to ensure the delivery of quality healthcare for the people of Pusupu in the Nkwanta South District of the Volta Region, a clinic is being rehabilitated to serve the health needs of the residence.
The health facility which has been abandoned for the past ten years has resulted in a situation where the clinic has been completely run down and vandalized by miscreants in the area.
Speaking to GhanaMPs.gov.gh, Member of Parliament for Nkwanta South, Hon. Gershon Gbediame stated that the situation where the clinic stopped operation resulted in a situation where residents of Wusupu and its environs had no option but to access healthcare elsewhere creating a lot of inconvenience.
He disclosed that the health facility was first administered by the Global Church but had to be stopped after the residents called for government to take over the supervision of the clinic.
Hon Gbediame noted that the repair works is being funded with his share of the Health Insurance Fund and will go a long way in serving the health needs of the people.
In another development, Hon. Gbediame related that a community centre is being constructed in Pusupu to serve as a centralized centre for hosting social events of the people.
He said the centre which is being financed with his share of the MPs Common Fund is currently at the screeding level and is expected to be completed by the end of this year.
