Ghana government to prioritize completion of 35 Agenda 111 hospital projects

This decision is part of a phased implementation strategy aimed at the prudent use of public resources and accelerating critical healthcare infrastructure delivery. Speaking in Parliament on Wednesday, July 8, 2026, Akandoh explained that facilities would be prioritized based on their completion level, the healthcare needs of communities, and regional distribution, ensuring each region receives at least one completed hospital. He stated that the government would invest in the first 35 districts or facilities, prioritizing those over 80% complete.

This review ensures that investments under Agenda 111 provide meaningful benefits to Ghanaians. Akandoh also mentioned plans to deepen collaboration with the Christian Health Association of Ghana to improve healthcare access and strengthen the health system. Agenda 111 was introduced by the previous New Patriotic Party administration under Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to address healthcare infrastructure gaps by constructing hospitals in districts lacking such facilities, as well as regional and specialized hospitals.
