Bawumia promises to make Ghana a pharmaceutical hub in West Africa

Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, Vice President and flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has promised the Pharmaceutical Society of Ghana (PSGH) that Ghana will become a sub-regional pharmaceutical hub.

This according to Dr. Bawumia is aimed at reducing the importation rate of drugs into the country.
Dr. Bawumia made this declaration when he engaged some key players of the Pharmaceutical Society in Accra on Thursday, April 4, 2024, and shared with them his vision for the industry if elected President of the republic.

The vice president who was accompanied by Minister-designate for health, Dr. Okoe Boye, the NPP national chairman, Stephen Ntim, campaign manager for the NPP Fredrick Opare Ansah among others noted that just as he wants to set up a minerals development bank for miners aimed at supporting miners to acquire equipment, there has to be a source of funding for the pharmaceutical society.
