Government Of Ghana Must Adopt A 'Mugabe Style' To Discipline GMA.

Be Not Deceived

Every single day, Ghana Medical Association (GMA) threatens government with strike action and resignation to improve their conditions of service. I still wonder if we are being grateful to government at all for making us the professionals we are today. Most of us who got student loans in school had to do national service for a thank you to government and pay later from our salaries if we are able to get some sort of employment. With the health service, you get free allowance for going to training college, receive money for being posted on service and then disturbs government for more money after being employed. Whatever goes wrong with the professional oaths that you swore to save lives at all cost? When will these people learn to appreciate the fact that in a developing country like Ghana, in her struggling state, things can never be the same as in developed countries. After the government spent money and resource to hire expert doctors to teach you through your professional career and offer you a stable job, the least you can do to be grateful is do your job and stop whining. I think it is about time government employed a Mugabe strategy to put these ingrates in their real place in this country: help them resign, seize their license, put them under house arrest until they are ready to work, but must do so by submitting new application for employment. One thing for sure is that there are a sea of unemployed graduates able and willing to work in their stead but are not given the chance just cos you occupy all the posts. Government needs to get his dick hard to instil some discipline in these workers with their unprofessionalism. If you go on strike and resign so that you let your patients die, that will not take your graves away. Your place is always reserved cos surely you 'go kpai'. ‪#‎WeNeedToGrow‬
