Broadcast Journalist and a member of the Morning show crew of Accra based Citi FM, Korkui Hanson Selormey has called on the government and Minstry of Health to operationalize the newly built University of Ghana Medical Centre (UGMC).

Government officially opened the out-patient Department (OPD) and Administration Unit of the 650-bed facility University of Ghana Medical Centre (UGMC) on 23rd July 2018.

The Centre currently only attend to referral cases limited to three main departments, Dermatology, Ophthalmology, ENT, Laboratory and Pharmacy services with Laboratory and Pharmacy services.

Patients with minor ailments and without referrals from other hospitals cannot walk into the new facility for treatment.

Even with the partial opening of the facility, it had to take countless demonstrations and protest from the media and the public before the needless power tussle between the government of Ghana and the University about who owns the facility was settled.

On Monday, Korkui Selormey interviewed mother of the 13 year old boy Michael Kofi Asiamah who passed on at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital whiles undergoing brain tumor surgery who narrated how the decayed health care system at the premier hospital killed her son.

Cordelia Ama Selormey a relative of the Journalist lamented how the doctors did all they can to save his child but the system killed his boy.

Korkui Selromey took to his twitter handle to to urge the government to fix the rotten health care system at Korle Bu by moving staff and patients to the newly built UGMC to refurbish Korle Bu.

"The persistent underutilisation of the University of Ghana Medical Centre (UGMC) is criminal. People need to use it! We deserve that facility, and more like it. Evacuate Korle Bu, relocate staff and patients to UGMC and#FixKorleBuNow!!!#FixTheCountry"
