Yesterday evening around 8 pm, I got a call and messages from an Assemblyman in my Constituency whilst I was at church that his 12-year-old son had been rushed to the Battor Catholic hospital in the morning.” He revealed how the little boy had been referred to the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital but the facility declined to accept him citing the usual no bed as an excuse. “The situation had been deteriorating and a decision was made early afternoon to transfer the child to Accra.

Calls were made to 37 Military Hospital and they agreed to take the child,” Sam George continued.
