  They should all leave. We cannot be in a country where the elite get everything and the rest languish in poverty.

  This is very sad indeed. Look at where Malaysia and Singapore are today, when these countries and Ghana were more or less at the same level in the 1950s. At the independence of the two countries in 1957, Ghana's GDP was higher than Malaysia's. Also, it is worthy of note that the palm nut tree was imported to Malaysia from West Africa (Nigeria/Ghana). Today, Malaysia is the second largest palm oil producer in the world with 190,000,000 metric tons, behind Indonesia (47,000,000 metric tons). You may wonder where Nigeria and Ghana, from where the pam oil tree was imported, stand today. Nigeria stands at a distant 5th place with 1,500,000 metric tons, and Ghana comes WELL behind with a paltry 300,000 metric tons in 14th place.
  Obviously, Ghana is incapable of using appropriately the natural resources she is blessed with. Neither the off shore oil, nor the Gold (that was once used to finance Christoph Columbus' voyage to the Americas have brought any significant changes in the lives of Ghanaians.
  My point in introducing Malaysia and Singapore in the issue of nurses and medical practitioners leaving our country in droves, is to emphasize the irresponsibility and /cruelty/or cluelessness of our leaders who close their eyes on the unacceptable living conditions of their fellow citizens, while they amass wealth for themselves.
  That is not to say Ghana should be singled out as an underperforming African country, because the majority of African countries are in the same situation. There seem to be no discernable development strategies among the leaders of most African countries.
  The missing element in our behavior remains our inability/refusal to do the RIGHT THING when we are in a position of responsibility. Their understanding of leadership is totally wrong.
  Further insight can be found in "LESSONS FOR GHANA IN THE MALAYSIAN ECONOMIC MIRACLE" by Nikita Singla.

  GRADUATES FROM ALL SCHOOLS IN GHANA, SHOULD BE MADE TO SERVE THE NATION FOR NOT LESS THAN SEVEN YEARS(7-YEARS)BEFORE THEY COULD LEAVE THEIR POSTS TO OTHER COUNTRIES. WE CANNOT USE THE COUNTRY'S FINANCIAL RESOURCES TO TRAIN OUR CITIZENS, ONLY FOR THEM TO ABANDON THE COUNTRY FOR GREENER PASTURES WITH THE ACQUIRED SKILLS. EDUCATION IN ALMOST ALL THE COUNTRIES THAT THESE GRADUATES MIGRATE TO, IS NOT FREE UNLIKE WHAT WE HAVE HERE IN GHANA.
  GHANA GOVERNMENT SHOULD DEVICE A MEANS TO HOLD THESE GRADUATES ACCOUNTABLE. GHANA IS LOSING TOO MUCH. WE ARE WASTING TOO MUCH MONEY ON THESE IRRESPONSIBLE GRADUATES FROM THE VARIOUS ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS !

  As of now, to get a national service posting in any decent institution, you have to know somebody who knows somebody who has "protocol" (a system practiced only in Ghana).
  
  Newly trained nurses stay at home for years without getting a posting - if you must be made aware of that. This is a corrupt and broken system. Didn't the Akuffo Addo government themselves arrange to send Ghanaian nurses to Barbados? Why not look into that to begin with?

  You are so RIGHT!!! Why won't people leave to look for work to feed and care for their family when they have studied but cannot find JOBS? We have 2 family nurses wasting at home as i type this. One posted to Akosombo was told due to protocols she was replaced. MOH will not provide jobs or give them clearance to work and pay whatever they owe or something. This is not right

  Employ the many nurses who finished school and have been seating at home all these years waiting to be employed.
