Obour named "National Tuberculosis Ambassador"
The Ministry of Health and the Ghana Health
Service has unveiled Bice Osei-Kuffour a.k.a Obour
as the "National Ambassador" for the Tuberculosis
prevention programme with a ceremony in Sunyani.

The ceremony which came off at the Sunyani Jubilee
Park last month was attended by the Minister of
Health and his deputy, the Leader of the
Parliamentary Select Committee on Health, the
Brong Ahafo Regional minister and the Queenmother
of Sunyani Traditional Area, students from Sunyani
and environs, health workers and the media.

Dr. Bonsu, the National Programmes Manager for T.B
unveiled Obour to the crowd as the "national
ambassador" after the dignitaries had spoken on
various themes around the killer disease.

He said that as an ambassador, Obour was going to
be touring various districts around the country
with his outfit to sensitize people on TB and most
importantly to create awareness that TB was
preventable as well as curable.

The "National Ambassador for Tuberculosis" when
asked to speak at the function, did under the
theme, "Elimination TB, together we can". He
performed his new TB song, "Yensuro TB", which he
hinted would be on his "Back to Obour" album as
social responsibility song.

"I feel it is my assignment as a Ghanaian and a
young man who believes in the future of my country
to always speak to the issues that affect my
country and not only speak to them but join in the
action to put an end to the wrongs that affect my
nation", he said in an interview with Hi
Newspaper.
