The Chairman of the Leukaemia Project Foundation, HRM Chief Alhassan Andani, has called for urgent investment in Ghana\u2019s healthcare infrastructure, revealing that about $10 million is needed to establish a world-class leukaemia treatment centre in the country.<\/p>\n

Chief Andani made the appeal on Joy FM\u2019s Super Morning Show on Monday, December 15, following a JoyNews report titled \u201cLeukaemia: Last Chance Abroad,\u201d which highlighted the tragic story of a child who battled leukaemia for four years before recently passing away.<\/p>\n

According to him, the proposed facility would require significant investment in infrastructure, equipment and specialised systems to meet international standards.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have gone through everything, the structures, equipment and anything up to about $10 million is what we are estimating to bring it to a global standard,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Chief Andani stressed that the establishment of such a centre would significantly improve access to critical care for children and other patients battling leukaemia, while reducing the financial and emotional burden on families forced to seek treatment abroad.<\/p>\n

He noted that investing in specialised cancer care locally would be a major step toward strengthening Ghana\u2019s health system and improving survival outcomes for patients with leukaemia.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
