Independent presidential aspirant, Mr Kofi Koranteng has advised government to consider building factories with the money meant for its Agenda 111 hospitals project.
In his view, it is more of a priority to industrialise so that the youth can gain employment to make some income, improve their living standards and consequently improve their quality of life, which, according to him, may even render the hospitals needless.
“You want to build 111 hospitals while the people you expect to seek healthcare from those facilities don’t have the money to pay for services to sustain them”, Mr Koranteng told Nana Yaw Adwenpa on CTV’s morning Dwabremu on Monday, 30 August 2021.
“The money you are using to build those 111 hospitals should be used to create industries for the youth to work in them for income so that they can use that to build our local economy”, he said on the programme.
