Empowering Women: Ho Central MP Leads Cervical Cancer Fight
March 29, 2026 – In a significant move to promote women’s health, the Member of Parliament for Ho Central Constituency, Richmond Edem Kofi Kpotosu, hosted a free cervical cancer screening event at the Ahoe Community Center yesterday. The event drew a large crowd of women from across the constituency, highlighting the urgent need for such initiatives.
According to Kpotosu, the screening event was part of his ongoing efforts to prioritize the health and well-being of women in his constituency. Cervical cancer is a pressing health concern in Ghana, and early detection is crucial to reducing mortality rates. The event provided women with access to screening services and valuable information on cervical cancer prevention.
The screening event was well-organized, with health professionals on hand to provide expert advice and support. Women who attended the event expressed gratitude for the initiative, citing the importance of prioritizing their health. “It’s a wonderful initiative, and I’m glad I came,” said one participant.
Kpotosu’s initiative is part of broader efforts to address cervical cancer in Ghana. The Cervical Cancer Prevention and Training Centre is also working to equip health workers with the skills needed to screen and treat cervical cancer.
The success of the screening event underscores the importance of community-focused health initiatives. As Ghana continues to grapple with cervical cancer, events like this serve as a beacon of hope for women across the country.
