VaMijo, a local ride‑hailing company, announced that it will roll out a special rides package for doctors and nurses in Accra before the Christmas season, offering heavily discounted fares to recognise their contribution to healthcare delivery.
Chief Marketing Officer Mr Kwame Danso‑Acheampong said the initiative is intended to acknowledge the sacrifices health workers make in saving lives and ensuring the well‑being of Ghanaians. “As an indigenous firm, this is our own way of saying we see the effort and personal sacrifices you put in everyday in saving lives and ensuring the health of Ghanaians. We appreciate you so much,” he added.
In parallel, VaMijo has presented medical supplies and maternity essentials to Kaneshie Polyclinic and Achimota Hospital in Accra. The maternity ward at Kaneshie received suction catheters, injection kits and other medical essentials, while the team at Achimota was received by Chief Nursing Officer Mary Frimpong and received donated supplies.
The package for health workers comes as VaMijo prepares to launch its Kyem P3 promotion on 9 November. Under the promotion, customers will pay 50 per cent of their fares, with the company covering the remaining half on rides costing less than GH¢100.
