Krachi East NPP wants to convert Mahama’s Community SHS into a district hospital – NDC

Unconfirmed reports circulating in the Krachi East Constituency of the Volta Region indicate that the New Patriotic Party – NPP intends to convert the magnificent World Bank sponsored Community Day Senior High School in the district into a district health facility.

According to reports, the MP, Hon. Michael Gyato is championing this agenda in order to fulfill his promise of delivering a District Hospital within his first year as a Member of Parliament for the area, hence, the idea of converting the education facility into a district hospital.

The school is one of the 200 nationwide community day schools of former President John Mahama for which some have been completed and others at various stages of completion before he lost his second term bid in 2016.

Reacting to the reports, Mr. Edem Gidisu, General Secretary of the NDC in the Krach East Constituency, told Awake News that President Mahama embarked on the nationwide educational ‘infrastructural development in order to bring to reality, the progressively free education.’

He said he can therefore not understand why the NPP will want convert the facility into hospital.
“…It therefore beats my Krachi East NPP wants to convert Mahama’s Community SHS into a district hospital – NDC as to why the NPP in the Krachi East Constituency would hatch such an idea at a time that they are at the verge of implementing g their Free SHS education policy. What fascinates me most is how some of their so called educated members are backing this whole idea.” – Mr. Edem Gidisu said

Mr. Gidisu warns that any attempt by the MP and the NPP to convert the school block into a health centre will be met with tough resistance from the NDC.

“Hon. Michael Gyato, never think of such an idea because it is going to be met with all the resistance it deserves from NDC.”

“You promised to deliver a district hospital in 3months when you are elected as MP, do it!. You promised to lift the whole of Krachi East to a city status, do it!” – He added
Meanwhile, Awake News has made all attempts to rich Hon.

Micheal Gyato for his response, but all efforts proved abortive.
