Nana Owiredu Wadie I , Nkosuohene of Kwahu Nkwatia deserves special national commendation for his selfless commitment to alleviation of poverty and improving quality healthcare particularly to mothers and children.
I was short for words Thursday September 28,2023 when I joined the handing over ceremony of ultra modern Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) built by himself to the Eastern Regional hospital.
Nana Owiredu Wadie I for many years now has been paying all medical bills of mothers at the maternity ward on his birthday.
But was not impressed with the state of the NICU which was supposed to serve the entire region hence decided to put up a befitting one that meets international standard.
The project started in January 2022 and was commissioned on his birthday September 28,2023.
Note that, Neonatal deaths in Eastern region is higher than national average .The region recorded 7.8 mortalities per 1000 live births in 2022 against national average of 6.5 per 1000 live births.
I pray that ,kind hearted people like Nana Owiredu Wadie I and his Kabaka Foundation be blessed more than necessary to positively impact society.
