Former First Lady Lordina Dramani Mahama has visited the Hohoe constituency to engage in some activities and boost the campaign of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary candidate for Hohoe.
Mrs Mahama met and interacted with the queen mothers from the Gbi traditional area, during which she introduced the parliamentary candidate Efo Worlanyi Tsekpo to them.
In her interaction, they discussed issues affecting the development of women and children in their communities and how the administration of John Dramani Mahama will support them.
As the President of the Lordina Foundation, Mrs. Mahama's visit to Hohoe was marked by a significant gesture.
She donated a substantial quantity of much-needed hospital equipment to Hohoe Regional Hospital, a move that will significantly enhance healthcare delivery to the community.
The donation, made in response to an urgent appeal from the NDC parliamentary candidate, included a range of essential hospital equipment. These items, which will greatly bolster the hospital's capacity, comprise hospital beds, incubators, baby cots, carts, wheelchairs, stethoscopes, kitchenware, irons, and kettles.
Charles Tokornu, the Hospital Administrator, expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Mrs. Mahama for her generous support. On behalf of his colleagues, he pledged to use the donated equipment to significantly enhance healthcare delivery in the community.
She added, “We are thrilled with the many items provided… additional resources are crucial to delivering our patients the highest quality of care.”
Efo Worlanyo Tsekpo expressed his gratitude to Mrs Mahama for the timely intervention. He spoke about the hospital's neglect over the last almost eight years and assured the community that a future NDC government would address the pressing challenges facing the health sector.
In her remarks, Mrs Mahama commended the dedication of the health staff despite the logistical challenges they face. She assured them of her ongoing commitment to supporting the health sector.
Through the Lordina Foundation, Mrs Mahama has consistently championed healthcare initiatives over the past two decades. Recent projects include the construction of maternity and children’s wards in the Bole and Nkoranza districts.
