Queen mother ‘cries’ to Mahama over Sawua Hospital becoming breeding ground for rats, snakes

The Queen Mother of Sawua Traditional Council in the Bosomtwe District of the Ashanti Region, Nana Akosua Abrafi Afisaa II, has made a passionate appeal to President John Dramani Mahama, the Ministry of Health, and the Ghana Health Service to fix the Sawua Regional Hospital.

According to a report by Otecnews, the queen mother’s plea comes amid concerns over the hospital’s deplorable state and its impact on healthcare.

The hospital, which has been abandoned, is at the verge of destruction and has been ravaged by pests.

A visit to the hospital by Kumasi-based Otecnews found that the beautiful edifice has turned into a breeding ground for pests such as rats, snakes, among many others.

Some doors and gates of the hospital had been removed with its roofing sheets almost falling off.

The gutters that were constructed to take care of the drainage system around the hospital have also been destroyed.

Nana Afisaa II said that the Sawua Regional Hospital must be operationalised to help reduce the pressure on the KATH and also prevent the needless loss of lives in her area.

“We have this nice edifice here which could serve a large number of patients and release pressure from the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH), yet we face a lot of maternal mortality here at Sawua due to the neglect of this Regional Hospital.

“I’m pleading with President John Dramani Mahama, the Health Ministry, the Ghana Health Service, and other stakeholders to ensure that the Sawua Regional Hospital is attended to, to allow operations to cater for the healthcare of patients in the community and Ghana as a whole,” she stressed.

The queen mother also pointed out that leaving such an edifice to rot will amount to a wastage of the country’s scarce resources.

“Are we going to leave the edifice to deteriorate to the level where we’ll have to spend taxpayers’ money to renovate before it can serve its purpose?” Nana Akosua Abrafi questioned.
