A recent report by UTV claiming that the Oforikrom Municipal Agenda 111 hospital is complete and operational has been debunked by Ayisah Foster, Managing Editor of The Punch Newspaper.

Upon visiting the site, Foster observed that critical components such as the theater ,labs and morgue remain unfinished.
