Korle Bu staff protest CEO’s dismissal

Scores of workers at the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital massed up at the central administration to demonstrate against the sacking of their CEO.

Dr Felix Anyah was relieved of his duties by President Nana Akufo-Addo on Wednesday, 6 June 2018.

Some staff of the hospital, who wore red armbands and carried placards, laid down their tools and gathered at the hospital on Thursday 7 June 2018, and chanted war songs.

The workers said Dr Anyah has spearheaded developments in the hospital and demanded to know the reasons for his dismissal.

It took the intervention of the President of the Korle Bu Senior Staff Association (KOSSA), Mr Charles Nii Kwade Ofei-Palm to calm the workers down.

He explained to them that the hospital is yet to receive official notification concerning the sacking of the CEO, and, so, they should exercise restraint.

The agitated staff later returned to work after their interaction with the KOSSA president.
