According to the Member of Parliament, the outstanding Dr. Kofi Effah and his awesome colleagues at the Battor Catholic Hospital in the North Tongu District of the Volta Region will be responsible for screening all his female Constituents.

Mr. Ablakwa reiterated that, more than 1,500 women die every year in Ghana due to cervical cancer. This, he believes that, there’s a need to support females to undergo this special screening so as to curb this problem.
