Members, made up of some ministers of state, government functionaries, Members of Parliament and supporters of the NDC, scrubbed the offices, removed cobwebs and cleaned the entire surroundings of the hospital, assisted by Zoomlion and the National Fire Service, which provided water for the exercise.
Donation
The group also donated some food items, as well as sanitory tools to the hospital in line with its objective of helping to keep the environment clean.
They were made up of refuse containers, scrubbing brushes, long brooms and mops, detergents, disinfectants and some beverages.
Nii Osah Mills, Minister of Lands and Natural Resources who handed over the items to the management of the hospital, asked that the items be taken good care of and used for their intended purposes.
He advised members of the general public to keep their surroundings clean to avoid contracting diseases such as cholera and pneumococcal meningitis, which had currently hit some regions in the country and claimed many lives.
Madam Catherine Aboagye, Chief Environmental Officer of the hospital, thanked the fun club for the gesture and expressed the hope that members would respond positively to the hospital’s call whenever the need arose.
