President John Dramani Mahama has expressed confidence that the reconstruction of the La General Hospital will be completed and ready for commissioning by November 2027, following a site inspection.
Accompanied by the Minister for Health, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, the President commended contractors and workers for the steady progress, stressing the need to maintain momentum to meet the deadline.
He noted that the hospitalβs closure had placed significant pressure on nearby facilities, making its completion critical to restoring healthcare access in the area.
The President also outlined plans to repurpose the COVID-era emergency center at Burma Camp to handle emergency cases and reduce treatment delays, while highlighting the governmentβs broader push toward preventive care through the recently launched Free Primary Healthcare initiative.
The Health Minister explained that the project, which began redevelopment in 2020, faced funding and payment delays but resumed fully in 2025 after outstanding issues were resolved.
He added that the hospital will serve over 50,000 residents in La and surrounding communities, significantly strengthening healthcare delivery in the capital.
Over 20 structures built within the 50-metre buffer zone of the Kpeshie Lagoon at the Laboma Beach Resort in the La Dade-Kotopon Municipality were on Sunday demolished by the Greater Accra Regional Coordinating Council (GARCC).
Buildings such as single-unit semi-detached under construction and completed chalets at the resort were pulled down while portions of a newly constructed perimeter wall were also demolished. Read More

About 120 golfers from clubs across Ghana participated in an 18-hole competition, dubbed βMTN 30th Anniversary CEO Invitational Golf Tournamentβ held at the Achimota Golf Club on Saturday.
At the end of the hectic day, Frederick Semenu Duvor won the Men’s Group A event with 39 points, while Julienne Afi claimed the Ladies’ Group A title with the same score.
Yaw Mireku Jnr. won the Men’s Group B with an impressive 45 points, while Kous Louanges Mang took the Ladies’ Group B title with 38 points.
Kofi Mangesi won Men’s Group C with 40 points while Elorm R. Akuash Bonney claimed the Ladies’ version with 42 points.
In the Seniors Division, Jan Vogel emerged winner of the men’s category with 39 gross, while Helen Appah topped the ladies’ category with 44 gross.
Addressing participants, the companyβs Board Chairman, Mr Ishmael Yamson, urged the company to approach its next phase with the same resilience, discipline and determination that have defined its success over the past three decades.
He drew a striking parallel between the game of golf and MTN Ghana’s three-decade journey, describing both as long games in which success depends less on one spectacular moment than on consistency, patience, judgment and the ability to recover from setbacks.
He said, golf had taught him a lesson that extended far beyond the fairways, thus, a round cannot be won on the first hole.
In golfing terms, he said, MTN Ghana had encountered its share of regulatory bunkers, competitive hazards and unexpected storms that had forced the company to pause, reassess and change its approach.
But those challenges, he suggested, were part of the journey rather than reasons to abandon it.
