Some Ghanaians have quashed the proposal for a new hospital and a chamber for Member of Parliaments (MPs), that was requested by the Minority Leader in Parliament, Alexander Kwamina Afenyo-Markin, during the inauguration of the Parliamentary Board.
They stated that parliamentarians need to prioritise relevant and pressing issues, such as schools under trees, inflation, among others, to benefit the ordinary Ghanaian, while fixing the current economic hurdles instead. "There is nothing special about getting a new hospital when we have a lot of pressing issues to battle with in the country," one of them said.
Reacting to the Minority Leader's request for a new hospital on the AM Show on JoyNews, and monitored by GhanaWeb, some Ghanaians questioned the MP for trying to separate ordinary citizens from the political class. "Are Ghanaians not worth quality health services.
If the existing ones aren't standard, fix it because we are all the same," one other person said via a phone-in call.
