Awerco Construction Limited has rejected reports suggesting that the World Bank has cancelled the contract for the Weija Paediatric Hospital Project, describing the claims as inaccurate and misleading.
In a press release dated December 12, 2025, the construction firm said it had taken note of several publications from a number of media outlets alleging that the World Bank had terminated the contract for the project.
Awerco clarified that its contractual relationship for the Weija Paediatric Hospital Project is solely with the Ministry of Health, and not with the World Bank.
The company stressed that at no point has the Ministry of Health communicated any challenge, termination, or cancellation affecting the contract currently under execution.
“The facts on record are clear. Our client is the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Ghana, and there has been no notice whatsoever of contract termination or cancellation,” the statement said.
The company also addressed what it described as specific inaccuracies in the publications made stating that it has never granted any interviews, whether formal or informal, to any media house on the matter.
Contrary to reports that the project was only 65 percent complete, Awerco said the Weija Paediatric Hospital Project is practically completed in line with the contract scope and is currently undergoing snagging works in collaboration with the Ministry of Health.
The firm further disclosed that all medical equipment required under the contract has been fully supplied and installed, adding that the only outstanding issue relates to payments due from the Ministry of Health in accordance with the contract terms.
Awerco Construction reaffirmed its commitment to working closely with the Ministry of Health and other relevant stakeholders to complete all remaining processes leading to the formal takeover and operationalisation of the Weija Paediatric Hospital.
The statement was signed by the Managing Director of Awerco Construction Limited, Joseph Adams.
