Strikes are simply the results of the inability to resolve labor disputes. The doctor should stop the bullcrap about mental disorders; just because he is a physiologist does not mean that everything has to be explained with psychology. Sure, anyone’s frustrations could cause some stress for them but he should stop this suicide, murder, and homicide etc., nonsense. I think his association with mental patients is beginning to rub off on him.

And that 41% did not even include the Doctors.

The unbearable national social economic hardship which has degenerated into national labour distress and work place unrest coupled with strikes has certainly affected the brains of the national Chief Psychiatrist whose analyses of the rights of our Doctors and pharmacists to demand fair salaries from the "woyomenized" guinea fowls focused Mahama led government indicates he needs a psychiatrist attention himself or consultation with Kwaku Bossam for herbal cure.
How can any physically fit right minded person describe workers and professional Doctors and Pharmacists for that matter who have genuinely embarked on strike as people with some sort of mental disorder?
How does the President expect these all unfortunately described mad men and women to go back to work at our hospitals?
If you live among mad people for a long period, your actions and in-actions turned to be like them. Dr. Akesi Osei is distressfully gone mental.

Can't believe this disgusting analysis is coming from the whole national Chief Psychiatrist or probably some responsible person.
The statement here is like reading from the naughty NDC mosquito general secretary Asiedu Nketia, the shameless criminal Ablakwa or the illiterate braggart Yaw Boateng Djan.
How could a person placed at a national responsible position spew such derogatory words about Doctors and Pharmacists demanding their rightful salaries which has been denied them over so many months.
Between the government who have so much to pay for dubiously perceived settlement debts and voted hugely for non existing guinea fowls projects with a non substantive evidence of 8.7 million Cedis deficit in the national budget and the striking Doctors and Pharmacists who is distress to be said as having mental case?
This is a total indication that the entire country is sick.
Already the President has come out to say he is having sleepless night, do we take that as he having mental disorder out of stress?
Dr Akesi Osei please, come again.

A psychiatrist was conducting a group therapy session with four young mothers and their small children. "You all have obsessions," he observed.
To the first mother he said, "You are obsessed with eating. You even named your daughter Candy."
He turned to the second mom. "Your obsession is money. Again, it manifests itself in your child's name, Penny."
He turned to the third mom. "Your obsession is alcohol and your child's name is Brandy."
At this point, the fourth mother got up, took her little boy by the hand and whispered, "Come on, Dick, let's go home.

Did you say that negotiations are about completed for Cuban doctors to come to practice in Ghana?
Upon their arrival, would they have received the necessary education, training and accreditation as stipulated and recognized by the Ghana Medical Association(AMA)as could permit them to practice medicine in the country?
Is the government, at the same time, also negotiating to bring in Cuban nurses and other health delivery professionals to come to work with the doctors in Ghana?
Should these doctors and other medical professionals from Cuba need some training and/or orientation in respect to the cultural values and practices of the Ghanaian people so as to be somewhat equipped to better undersatanding the Ghanaian?
Is this not a bogus government that has no understanding and the wherewithal to governing?
