What happened
President John Dramani Mahama toured the Ahafo Region, inspecting two newly built Community-Based Health Planning and Services compounds in Ahyiaem and Nsuapemkrom. These facilities were constructed using proceeds from the District Assemblies Common Fund. Mahama stated that his administration directed all MMDCEs to build these health compounds, alongside classroom blocks and 24-hour economy markets, as part of a broader policy to expand healthcare access.

Why it matters
The policy involves un-capping the District Assemblies Common Fund and disbursing 80% of the funds directly to Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Assemblies. This shift decentralizes fiscal power and aims to expand universal access to healthcare across Ghana.
