Coronavirus: You Cannot Limit Use Of Bank Hospital To VIPs Only, It Is A Public Facility -HRH Oscar Doe To Akufo-Addo


Philanthropist and businessman, HRH Oscar Yao Doe has called on President Nana Akufo-Addo to immediately revert the usage of the Bank Hospital (recently opened for coronavirus cases) by VIPs only and open its services to all Ghanaians regardless of class or status. In a strongly-worded post this afternoon on social media, HRH Doe said it is very annoying that after abandoning the facility completed by the Mahama administration for over 3 years, Akufo-Addo is limiting the services of the hospital to only VIPs at this material time when everyone is faced with the coronavirus pandemic.

He also recalled how he has written publicly several time to call on the president to put political sentiments apart and open the Bank Hospital, as well as about eleven other big health facilities completed by his predecessor. The President seems to now have woken up to reality now that the dreaded coronavirus has brought a big crisis, according to the Doscar Group Holdings Chairman. Read his full post below.
"The World On Reset: Lessons From Coronavirus (Covid-19).

I, His Royal Highness, Oscar Yao Doe, Call On The President of The Republic of Ghana, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo To, As A Matter Of Urgency, Revert The Use Of The Bank Hospital From 'VIP Use' To A Public Healthcare Facility Immediately. It Should Be (For) PUBLIC USE, Not VIP USE, (And That Should Be) Crystal Clear. End Of Story. I Repeat, There Is No VIP Patients In Coronavirus Illness. It's A Deadly Virus.

It Doesn't Make Sense (That) A Hospital Built With Public Funds By John Mahama Has Been Abandoned For Political Reasons By Akufo Addo For More Than 3 Years. (It Now Seems Like Now,) Because Coronavirus Doesn't Know Status or Class, He Has Now Gained Common Sense.

(Meanwhile), The Annoying Aspect is That The Presidency Has Decided To Use The Hospital For (VVIPs' Usage Only; Meaning The Presidency, Ministers of State AndTop Government Officials And Appointees Only. This is Hypocrisy and Madness! Akufo-Addo Doesn't Care About Public Healthcare, Based On His Own Bad Deeds And Actions.

I Wrote Many Times About This Insensitive Behaviour By The President. I Am Sure Most People Thought I Was Crazy, But Here We Are In Health Crisis, A Pandemic Never Seen Before".
