Ghana: Minority MPs On Parliament’s Health Committee Barred From Visiting Afari Hospital

Security personnel at the Afari Government Hospital yesterday turned away the Ranking Member of Parliament’s Health Committee, Dr Nana Ayew Afriyie, and a delegation of Ashanti Region MPs after the legislators arrived unannounced for an inspection tour.
