He explained that the Consultant to work on the project was reviewing work to be done, saying at the moment a new mortuary had been built. Lepuwura said in order to improve the provision of health care facilities and ensure that health facilities were extended to every corner; three new hospitals will be built this year at Asem in the Bia District of the Western Region; Ajumako in the Central Region and Zabzuzu Tatale in the Northern Region. He explained that 10.5 million dollars will be required for the establishment of the three hospitals and the OPEC Fund had put in 8.5 million dollars whilst Ghana government would fund the rest.
