Hyewohoden (E/R), Oct. 6, GNA – A tricycle
ambulance donated to the Hyewohoden Health Center by the Kwahu East Health
Directorate and the Japanese Organization for International Cooperation in
Family Planning (JOICFP) toppled over and injured five people.
The incident occurred as a result of the bad
roads in the area and it coincided with the visit of the authorities of the
Health Directorate who were coming to the area to present the tricycle
ambulance to the health facility.
Speaking in an interview with the Ghana News
Agency at Hyewohoden in the Kwahu East District, Nana Asante Ababio II, the
Odikro for Nkwantanan, expressed concern over the bad roads which were
hindering economic activities in the area.
He said the communities along the Volta River
lacked portable water, toilet facilities and this has made life unbearable for
the inhabitants.
He said all bridges in the community have
broken down and the roads in the area have developed gullies as a result of the
heavy down pour during the rainy season.
Nana Ababio II, called on the government to
come to their aid as residents were suffering.
