Mahama calls for bold health reforms at World Health Assembly

President John Dramani Mahama has reaffirmed Ghana’s commitment to building a resilient, people-centred and self-sustaining healthcare system at the 79th World Health Assembly in Geneva, Switzerland.

Delivering the keynote address, President Mahama stressed the need for bold reforms, African health sovereignty, expanded healthcare access and strategic investment in public health infrastructure.

He also called for practical global action beyond declarations and rhetoric.

“We do not come to Geneva to mourn the past. We come to build a future where a country’s health is not a byproduct of charity, but a result of sovereign capability,” he said.
