President has called on Ghana's Ministry of Health and financial policymakers to shift their perception of health from a cost to a vital economic investment.
Speaking at the 2025 Africa Health Sovereignty Summit on Tuesday, August 5, 2025, he emphasised that investing in health is fundamental to achieving sustainable national development.
According to him, health should no longer be viewed as a drain on the economy but rather as "a powerful engine of productivity and a pillar for inclusive growth." "We are not merely reacting to emergencies; we are building systems that create jobs, reduce inequalities, and uphold the dignity of every Ghanaian, no matter where you are.
Health is wealth, and we must re-frame the economies of well-being," he said.
