A notice served to the doctors at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) to vacate their homes has triggered an indefinite strike at the hospital today, Wednesday, March 13.
According to the doctors' association of the hospital, the situation is worrying after the failed promise to relocate all government workers residing within a state lands enclave around Danyame and Nhyiaeso.
Dr. Paa Kwasi Baidoo told Citi News in an interview monitored by Theannouncergh.com that, they will not return to work until their plights are solved.
“You will notice that a lot of our staff live 15 to 20 minutes away from the hospital and all of a sudden, people will come and ask you to move from your place because it has been sold to them and we took that issue up and we met with Manhyia on it, and it was agreed that a new place be prepared to move us there before you can take possession of the land. They have disregarded that with impunity and so we are meeting this morning.”
“We will all leave the hospital to go and look for accommodation because we don’t have a place to sleep.”
