The Member of Parliament for Bunkpurugu constituency in the Northern region, Boar Namlit Solomon has moved to the aid of the Bunkpurugu health centre to support and resuscitate it to better run ambulance services in the district.

Reportedly most locals who have had their relations caught up in emergency situations at the facility normally find it difficult to even afford ambulance services that could swiftly dispatch emergencies elsewhere in nearby areas like the Baptist Medical centre in the East Mamprusi district.

In the wake of this situation, the MP has donated seed money worth GHS 1000 to assist the facility to effectively run the ambulance services in the district.

Speaking to Ghanamps.gov.gh, Mr Namlit Solomon indicated that the funding is intended to help cater for services of the poor who might not be capable of providing urgent finances to afford ambulance if the need be in emergencies.

In addition, the MP has donated motor-bike, laptop computer and furniture for pregnant women who turn up for ante-natal at the centre.

He said the district needed a more responsive healthcare system that will promptly respond to the challenging health issues, as well as help offer quality healthcare services to residents, hence the decision to support the Bunkpurugu health centre.
