Vice President Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang has announced the government’s commitment to partnering with the Catholic Church to complete the ‘Legacy of Hope Paediatric and Childhood Cancer Hospital’ at Adjen Kotoku in the Ga West District of the Greater Accra Region. The hospital, once completed, will provide critical healthcare services to children battling cancer and other complex medical conditions, serving children from all parts of Ghana and beyond, irrespective of religion or cultural background.
The Vice President assured the congregation of continued collaboration in the health sector, emphasizing that the initiative aligns with the government’s vision to strengthen healthcare delivery across the country. She encouraged the faithful to place the collective good above individual interests, stressing that national unity and shared purpose are essential to sustainable development.
The announcement follows an appeal by the Metropolitan Archbishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Accra, Most Rev. John Bonaventure Kwofie, who called for government and public support to complete the hospital project. The Archbishop described the project as “a beacon of hope and compassion for children battling cancer and other complex medical conditions,” reflecting the Church’s enduring commitment to human dignity and public welfare.
The ‘Legacy of Hope Paediatric and Childhood Cancer Hospital’ will feature an Outpatient Department (OPD), theatre, radiology unit, Intensive Care Unit (ICU), pharmacy, medical block, maternity ward, and special accommodation unit to support patients and families. The government’s partnership with the Catholic Church is expected to bring hope to many families and provide critical healthcare services to children in need.
