Kingsley Owusu-Achau, the owner and president of Bechem United FC, has donated medical supplies valued at over GH₵500,000 to the Bechem and Tepa Government Hospitals. The donation, presented on October 28, 2026, was organized in collaboration with the Diaspora Africa Forum (DAF). This initiative is specifically designed to enhance the quality of healthcare delivery within these two municipal facilities, ensuring they are better equipped to handle the medical needs of their respective communities.
Commonly known as Agama, Mr. Owusu-Achau noted that the provision of these medical resources is a vital step in supporting the government's efforts to provide accessible and efficient health services. By partnering with the Diaspora Africa Forum, the donation highlights the impact of collective efforts between local entrepreneurs and the African diaspora in addressing critical infrastructure and supply gaps in the health sector. The items delivered are expected to support various departments within the hospitals, ranging from emergency services to general care.
This recent act of philanthropy follows a well-established pattern of support from the Bechem United president. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Owusu-Achau gained recognition for his extensive charitable work, which included the distribution of medical equipment and supplies to 16 hospitals across Ghana to aid the national response. His ongoing commitment to the healthcare sector reflects a broader vision of corporate social responsibility, leveraging his position in the sports industry to drive positive change in the regions where his club operates.
Health officials at the Bechem and Tepa facilities have welcomed the intervention, stating that the supplies come at a crucial time for the municipal hospitals. They emphasized that such private-sector contributions are essential for maintaining standards of care and providing staff with the necessary tools to treat patients effectively. The donation is anticipated to have a direct impact on the health outcomes of residents across the Tano South and Ahafo Ano North municipalities.
