He led the launching of the "Heal Komfo Anokye Project" in November last year, which aimed to renovate and improve the hospital’s infrastructure and healthcare services.
The initiative seeks to raise $10 million through public fundraising for the renovation of the hospital’s 70-year-old in-patient wards.
The renovation became necessary after portions of the hospital building developed structural defects, including damaged ceilings, deteriorated tiling, and poor ward conditions.
The facility, originally built with a 500-bed capacity, has experienced significant wear and tear over the years.
