A Ghanaian lady from Berekum, Bono Region, was amazed by the scenery of Accra when she visited the Capital city to seek medical attention.
The lady visited the Greater Accra Regional Hospital, popularly called the Ridge Hospital in Accra.

In a video, the woman sounded surprised and happy with what she was seeing. The woman kept exclaiming in amazement and almost forgot about her illness.
Someone who possibly accompanied her to the hospital reminded her that she was in the hospital to seek treatment and needed to focus instead of admiring the city.
However, the lady said she was just happy seeing all the beautiful buildings. The video she captured showed the new Bank of Ghana headquarters, among other high-rise buildings in that enclave.

"Looks like the Accra Ridge Hospital’s scenery is so beautiful, even the sick are getting ‘healed’ just by soaking it all in! Maybe they should add 'scenic therapy' to the treatment plans!"

"You see why the decentralisation of ministries is important. How can we develop other regions if everything is concentrated in Accra?"

"I always say that most people get to see the "other" Ghana when it's too late. Usually, when they've sold their properties and are already on their way, travelling outside. Ghana is nice and yes has its bad side like every other country 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭❤️."

"But it's true, Ridge Hospital is one of the nicest hospitals. It’s the same standard as hospitals in the UK and the United States."

Accra Mayor fines his family member
Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that the Accra Mayor, Michael Kpakpo Allotey, fined his family member who flouted a rule.
The Mayor's family member didn't sweep her surroundings before displaying her wares, and that got her into trouble.
The lady was not happy that the Mayor, who happened to be a member of her family, did not consider their blood ties, but went ahead to fine her
