To bring vital medical services directly to the heart of local commerce, the South Tongu District Assembly officially opened a new, permanent Free Primary Healthcare Post inside the Sogakope Market on September 11, 2026. Led by District Chief Executive (DCE) Hon. Victoria Dzeklo, this initiative anchors local service delivery directly to national health agendas.
The new facility delivers immediate, cost-free medical consultations, routine diagnostic screenings, and emergency triage. By embedding these services straight into the market's daily operations, the local government provides essential care to market women, local traders, transport drivers, and surrounding residents right where they work.
Traders remain the core driver of South Tongu's economy. Establishing structured health infrastructure directly within major trade zones represents a proactive measure to safeguard both public health and everyday livelihoods, reinforcing a culture of early detection and preventive care.
This landmark accomplishment was made possible through coordinated community leadership and cross-sector partnerships. Key contributors include.
