A Member of Parliament from the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has suggested that National Service Personnel undergo compulsory basic Cardiac Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) training.
Hon. Dr. Kinsley Agyemang, representing Abuakwa South Constituency in the Eastern region, believes this will equip Ghanaian youth with essential life-saving skills to respond to emergencies.
In an interview with DOK Cash on Kumasi-based OTEC 102.9 FM’s afternoon political show Dwabrem, Dr. Agyemang emphasized the importance of CPR training.
He cited recent cases of deaths, including the alleged stabbing of Nana Pooley, a die-hard Kumasi Asante Kotoko fan, during a football game.
Footage from the scene suggested that individuals with basic CPR skills could have potentially saved the victim.
Dr. Agyemang argued that training National Service Personnel in basic CPR will help thousands of Ghanaian youth develop essential life-saving skills.
This initiative he added will empower young people to respond effectively in emergency situations, ultimately saving lives .
