“The establishment of a medical school at CKT-UTAS is a major priority, and I’m working with all relevant partners to make this vision a reality,” Aworigo stated in Kasem, underscoring his commitment to addressing the health needs of the people.
In a related effort, Aworigo disclosed ongoing collaboration with the Director-General of the Ghana Health Service to upgrade the War Memorial Hospital in Navrongo into a more modern and better-equipped health facility.

He further assured that plans were far advanced to secure fertilizers and other farm inputs to support farmers to help improve food production and livelihoods in the farming communities.
