Following backlash since news broke that a pregnant woman, Angela Afriyie Agyemang, and her unborn baby have died at the Suntreso Government Hospital because the husband couldn’t immediately provide GHS500 “Doctor Motivation Fee”, the hospital has set up a committee to investigate and bring its recommendations in one week time.

News broke yesterday when the husband of the deceased woman, Pastor Solomon Lamo Latiff told Moro Awudu of Class FM that, the wife who just turned 30 years was refused admittance into the theater for her Caesarean Section because he couldn’t immediately pay the GHS500.
