Government under pressure as calls grow for urgent completion of Afari Hospital project
A leading government communicator, Richard Ahiagbah, has intensified calls on authorities to commit the necessary resources toward the completion of the long-delayed Afari Hospital project, warning that further delays could deprive thousands of residents of much-needed healthcare services.
Speaking on the importance of the facility, Ahiagbah stressed that the hospital remains a critical healthcare investment whose completion should be treated as a national priority rather than another abandoned infrastructure project.
According to him, residents in the area have waited far too long to benefit from the modern health facility, which was envisioned to improve healthcare delivery, reduce pressure on existing hospitals, and provide quality medical services to surrounding communities.
“The government must commit the resources required to complete the Afari Hospital,” Ahiagbah urged, emphasizing that unfinished health projects have serious consequences for citizens who depend on accessible healthcare.
His comments come amid growing public concern over stalled infrastructure projects across the country, with many questioning when key facilities will finally become operational.
Health advocates argue that completing the Afari Hospital could significantly improve medical care in the region by increasing access to treatment, creating employment opportunities, and strengthening the overall health system.
Observers say the renewed call by Ahiagbah is likely to reignite debate over government spending priorities and the need to ensure that major public projects are completed and put to use.
As pressure mounts, many residents are now looking to government officials for a clear timeline on when the Afari Hospital will be fully completed and opened to serve the public.
For communities eagerly awaiting its services, the message is clear: the time for promises has passed—what is needed now is action.
