The Assin Central Member of Parliament(MP) and Flagbearer hopeful of the NPP has donated hundred beds and mattresses to the Okomfo Anokye teaching hospital in Kumasi.
Speaking to staff, medical doctors and the media at the hospital premises Monday January 30, 2023, the Hon. M.P. disclosed that, he solicited support from other Ghanaians when the hospital presented the request before him.
According to Mr. Agyapong, these people wholeheartedly gave ninety-seven thousand Ghana cedis(Ghs 97,000) to support the course in spite of hardships in the country. He then topped it up to meet the total cost of the items at 336,000.
Mr. Agyapong was full of praise for those who squeezed something out of their pockets to help make the request fulfilled.
Mr. Agyapong though a politician, but a philanthropist as well and has been extending such kind gestures to individuals and organisations for decades.
Accordingly to him, the Okomfo Anokye Teaching Hospital as a referral facility, has been a centre of health care delivery for all people from the various regions and that, any assistance for that facility is indirectly an assistance for all persons in Ghana.
He recounted a case in point where he had to undergo surgery and treatment in that hospital during his elementary school days around the late 1960s.
The legislator, who has declared to offer himself to serve the country in a presidential capacity, later went round to interact the nurses and the general staff at the hospital.
The Chief Executive Officer(CEO) of Okomfo Anokye teaching hospital, Professor Addai Mensah thanked Hon. Agyapong for his generousity and unflinching benevolence towards the facility.
He asked and prayed for longevity and divine protection to enable him perpetuate these essential services to Ghana.
