The construction of a $100 million comprehensive cancer centre to help stem the tide against the disease in Ghana and Africa at large has taken off at Kwaso in the Ejisu Municipality of the Ashanti Region.
Sited on a 52-acre of land, the Centre is named Otumfuo Osei Tutu II Comprehensive Cancer Centre of Excellence (CCCoE), in honour of the Asantehene.
The five-year project is being funded by Breast Care International (BCI), Peace and Love Hospitals, Global Health Catalyst, and the University of Pennsylvania, in the United States of America (USA).
A representative of the Asantehene, Nana (Prof.) Oheneba Boachie-Adjei Woahene II, Otumfuo Hiahene, cut the sod for the construction work to begin on Friday.
