A video circulating on Instagram, shared by the account showbiz_blogger on July 26, 2026, captured the moment Captain Smart marked the beginning of the construction project.
The footage showed him placing a shovel and axe into the ground, the traditional gesture used to signal that a building project has officially commenced.
Gomoa Tarkwa Community Clinic groundbreaking
The ceremony drew a notable gathering of traditional leaders and community members, who turned out in visible excitement to witness the occasion.
Their presence and enthusiasm underscored the significance of the project for the people of Gomoa Tarkwa, a community that stands to benefit directly from the new health facility.
Captain Smart, who is widely recognised for his outspoken commentary on Ghanaian media, appeared to be spearheading the initiative rather than simply attending in an official or ceremonial capacity.
The video did not provide extensive details about the funding arrangement or the timeline for the clinic's completion, but the groundbreaking itself marked a concrete step forward for the project.
The Gomoa Tarkwa Community Clinic, once completed, is expected to serve residents in the area who currently face limited access to healthcare services.
