The Minister of Health, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, has openly highlighted the pressing challenges facing Ghana’s health system, while pledging the government’s unwavering commitment to resolving them and driving transformational change.
Speaking at the Government Accountability Series held at the Jubilee House on Friday, Minister Akandoh said, “We have challenges, no doubt:
- Qualified health workers are waiting for jobs.
- Industrial actions that threaten services.
- Infrastructure gaps, especially in regional hospitals.
- Poor maintenance culture in our facilities and institutions.”
Despite these hurdles, the Minister emphasized proactive measures underway: “Ladies and gentlemen, as you can see, we are tackling these head-on, planning and investing prudently.”
Looking forward, he expressed confidence in the sector’s bright future saying “Ghana’s health sector is poised for a remarkable transformation. We are fully committed to making free primary health care a reality for every Ghanaian, breaking down barriers to essential services.”
