Mr Parke-Davis Magyigbe, the Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) of Jasikan Municipal Assembly, has commissioned and handed over a newly constructed Community-Based Health Planning and Services (CHPS) compound with a 2-bedroom nurses' quarters at Oseikrom, Oti Region.

The event, held on Wednesday, June 4, 2025, marked a significant milestone in the assembly's efforts to improve healthcare accessibility for residents.

The facility, completed within an impressive six-month timeframe, is expected to provide essential medical services and accommodate healthcare workers, ensuring sustained quality care for the community. 

In his address, Magyigbe emphasised the government's commitment to enhancing healthcare infrastructure across the country. He also acknowledged the contributions of the Member of Parliament (MP) for Buem Constituency, Mr Kofi Adams, who has consistently supported Oseikrom’s development over the years.

 

MP Adams has also played a pivotal role in advancing education, infrastructure, water access, and community welfare in Oseikrom, among others.

Mr Magyigbe urged the community to take ownership of the new CHPS compound and collaborate with health professionals to maintain the facility.

The commissioning ceremony was attended by local leaders, health officials, and residents, who expressed gratitude for the development. This project aligns with the broader agenda of achieving universal health coverage and reducing the burden of travel for medical services in rural areas.
