A New Chapter for Healthcare and Infrastructure in Ningo: Unveiling Plans for a Nursing Training College and Road Construction
The vibrant Homowo Durbar in Ningo on Saturday, September 6, 2025, marked a significant turning point for the community as Hon. Samuel Nartey George, the Minister for Communication, Digital Technology and Innovations and Member of Parliament for the Ningo-Prampram constituency, unveiled ambitious plans to transform healthcare and infrastructure in the area. Central to these plans is the establishment of a nursing training college, an initiative poised to revolutionize community health education and open doors for aspiring nurses. This forward-looking project promises to not only address the growing need for qualified healthcare professionals but also empower the youth by providing accessible pathways to rewarding careers. Furthermore, the MP announced the imminent construction of the Tsopoli-Ningo road, a vital infrastructure project set to enhance connectivity, boost economic activity, and improve the overall quality of life for residents.
The proposed nursing training college holds immense potential for the Ningo community and beyond. Its establishment will create a localized hub for healthcare education, attracting students and fostering a skilled workforce to serve the region’s healthcare needs. By providing readily available training opportunities, the college will empower Senior High School graduates to pursue fulfilling careers in nursing, contributing to a stronger and more sustainable healthcare system. The initiative also underscores a commitment to investing in the future, recognizing that a robust healthcare infrastructure requires a steady supply of qualified professionals dedicated to providing high-quality care.
Beyond direct healthcare benefits, the nursing training college will have a ripple effect on the community’s socio-economic landscape. The influx of students and faculty will stimulate local businesses and generate employment opportunities. The college will also serve as a center for community health outreach programs, promoting health literacy and preventive care practices among residents. This emphasis on community engagement will empower individuals to take charge of their health, leading to better health outcomes and a healthier community overall.
Complementing the healthcare initiative, the construction of the Tsopoli-Ningo road represents a critical step towards improving transportation and connectivity in the area. Upgrading this crucial link will enhance trade and commerce by reducing travel time and transportation costs. Improved accessibility will also facilitate access to essential services such as healthcare and education, further enriching the lives of Ningo residents. The road project signifies a commitment to enhancing infrastructure development, recognizing its fundamental role in fostering economic growth and improving the quality of life for communities.
Hon. Samuel Nartey George’s demonstration of commitment to the Ningo community extended beyond these transformative projects with a generous donation of GHS 100,000 to the Ningo Traditional Council in support of the 2025 Homowo grand durbar. This significant contribution reflects the MP’s dedication to preserving cultural heritage and supporting community celebrations. The Homowo festival holds deep cultural significance for the people of Ningo, and the donation will undoubtedly enrich the festivities and strengthen the bonds within the community.
The announcements made during the Homowo Durbar mark a new era of development and progress for the Ningo community. The nursing training college promises to reshape healthcare by providing education, empowering individuals, and fostering a stronger healthcare system. The Tsopoli-Ningo road construction will significantly enhance connectivity, unlocking economic opportunities and improving accessibility. Together, these initiatives represent a significant investment in the future of Ningo, laying the foundation for a healthier, more prosperous, and connected community. The MP’s generous financial contribution to the Homowo festival underscores his commitment to the cultural fabric of Ningo, further solidifying the spirit of community and celebration. The people of Ningo can look forward to a future brimming with opportunity, driven by these transformative projects and the unwavering commitment of their representative.
