The Minister for Energy and Green Transition, Dr John Abdulai Jinapor, has inspected ongoing construction works on a modern multipurpose maternity centre in Yapei, in the Yapei-Kusawgu Constituency of the Savannah Region.
When completed, the facility is expected to provide specialised maternal and neonatal healthcare services, including continuous medical monitoring, emergency obstetric care and essential support for mothers and newborns before, during and after childbirth.
The project is expected to improve access to quality maternal healthcare in the constituency and strengthen efforts to reduce risks associated with pregnancy and childbirth.
Dr Jinapor who is also the Member of Parliament for the area on his part, described the facility as an important investment in the health and well-being of mothers and children, reaffirming his commitment to improving healthcare delivery across the Yapei-Kusawgu Constituency.
He stressed the need to ensure that no mother loses her life while giving birth and that every newborn has access to the healthcare needed for a healthy start.
The Minister also pledged to work towards the timely completion of the project, emphasising the importance of delivering development initiatives that have a direct and meaningful impact on people’s lives.
The maternity centre, upon completion, is expected to strengthen healthcare services in Yapei and surrounding communities, particularly in maternal and newborn care.
