Savannah Regional Minister Mr. Adam Braimah Salifu, on behalf of the President of Ghana, donated 100 bottles of water to the West Gonja Catholic Hospital in Damongo in the Savannah region.
This is part of efforts to help facilities combat the spread of the new coronavirus in the region.
Introducing the liters of water to hospital management, the minister expressed his gratitude to management and staff for keeping up the pace in the fight against COVID-19 and urged them to keep up with their good jobs.
“Damongo Hospital is a treatment or detention center for suspected Covid-19 cases. The well-being and life of the staff is very important to the President of Ghana. This donation is to help improve the health of doctors and nurses in the hospital, “he said.
This is the second time that the Salaga South MP has made a donation to the hospital.
A few weeks ago, he donated EPP to the hospital on behalf of the managing director of the Ghana water company, Dr. Clifford Braimah.
The minister assured that the government of the nuclear power plant, led by Her Excellency Nana Addo Danquah Akuffo-Addo, would do everything possible to make the people of the area’s drinking water portal.
According to him, the government is working tirelessly to ensure that contractors move to the site soon to start the water project.
He noted that the Ghana Water Company, meanwhile, was implementing alternative initiatives to provide Damongo people with free water as directed by the President.
The minister appealed to the general public to support the Ghana Health Service in fighting Covid-19 by adhering to stipulated protocols.
The donation was supported by Ghana Water Company Ltd.
The medical superintendent of the hospital, Dr. Saadaare Vitalis, who received the donation on behalf of the hospital, thanked the president and his government for the great effort made in the fight against the pandemic.
He praised the minister for his commitment to the well-being of health personnel in the region.
Dr. Saadaare assured that hospital staff will continue to work to improve health care services to the public.
The donation he revealed would help boost his morale.
The Savannah region has not registered a Covid-19 case as it stands now, and residents are encouraged to practice the measures outlined by the Ghana Health Service and the government to overcome the pandemic.
Ghana’s case count is currently 1,671 cases, with 188 recoveries and 11 deaths.
