Hundreds of youth of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Ejisu Constituency on Wednesday spent about four hours cleaning up the Ejisu Government Hospital.

They scrubbed the floor, cleared weeds and removed silt from gutters in and around the facility.

Mr. Augustus Andrews Nana Akwasi, the party’s parliamentary candidate for the December elections, led them to undertake the exercise.

He said it was their contribution towards helping to ease the workload on the few labourers in keeping the surroundings of the hospital clean.

Health promotion, he said, would be one of his main priorities, if elected by the people.

Dr Osei Owusu, the Medical Officer in-Charge, commended the youth for the exercise.
