The Minister of Health, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, has assured the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, that the Sewua Hospital will be operationalised soon.
He gave the assurance during a courtesy call on His Majesty at the Manhyia Palace on Friday, July 24, 2026.
Briefing Otumfuo on developments in the health sector, Mr Akandoh said significant progress had been made on critical infrastructure around the facility, particularly the road network, energy, and water supply.
