The donation, the first of its kind by a CEO in the hospital’s history, included various food items such as boxes of Milo and sugar, bags of rice, and cartons of milk.
The gesture forms part of the CEO’s effort to show solidarity and support to the Muslim community within the hospital during the Eid-ul-Fitr fasting period.

He said the donation was meant to encourage and support Muslim staff members who continue to render essential services while observing the fast.
He emphasised the importance of unity, compassion, and mutual support among hospital staff, adding that management remains committed to promoting an inclusive environment where the welfare and faith of all employees are valued.
Receiving the donation, Mr. Ibrahim Bawa, leader of the Muslim community at the hospital, expressed profound appreciation to the CEO for the thoughtful gesture. He noted that the donation would go a long way in supporting staff throughout the fasting period and demonstrates the strong sense of family and care within the institution.
The leadership of the Muslim community offered prayers for Dr. Baidoo and his management team, wishing them continued progress for the hospital.
