I think GMA shd be responsible in their opposition to this govt. Do they count the number of deaths that result from their countless useless strikes on very flimsy excuses?

Dr Serebour, have you compared the number of Ghanaians who die while you were on strike but received your salaries at the end of the strike to the number of people who commit suicide?

Abongo you are as crazy as your name and unfeeling as a twerp! If you haven't been in someone's shoes, all you can show is compassion. You may be one of those guys benefiting from this inept government's fallout or a connection man making quick easy money.

This is very saddened and the cheapest propaganda talks of the decade. Why, how and where are we heading to as a nation. The GMA should come clear. Their statement is not clear at all. If economic considerations are the causes of suicide then nations like Rwanda, South Sudan, etc may not exist. Please spare us this political colouration. Ghana is not poor as enemies of the nation wish to portray.

Any one who wants to commit suicide must target any minister or the Nahama and blow up along. That will be lovely. Don't do it alone. Target the Ndc guys and die with them.

Whatabout MILLIONAIRES who commit suicide??? Economic Hardship is NOT the ONLY GROUND to commit suicide.
GMA should also think of psychological AND psychiatrical ASSISTANCE !!!!!!

Why must we suffer whiles we have a lot of natural resources God has enrich us and rather still complaining of poverty. All is bad leaderships.Arm robbers in future will destroy the oil property found if government dont step in to help young guys to get jobs and better the economy. How much percentage govt have in all the rsources the country has. They must declare it to the society. We are furtherup and will crank the trigger to the top men if the dont put things well . Well said

Intellectually lazy bunch!. You only study physiology, bio-chemistry, anatomy, medicine, pharmacology etc and you think you know about live and tragedy of life. Dr Serebour, I am really disappointed in your leadership.

Sam I wished you could go to UK, USA, China, Japan, India, Australia, South Africa where some of the citizens are suffering gross economic deprivation and sleeping in the tube stations, cupboards in the winter, eating rotten food from the dust bins, no social support ie. families or friends etc and tell their leaders your ignorance.
Let me educate you before you start you murderous attempt to go on strike to directly and indirectly kill the poor Ghanaian patients for your political and selfish ends.
Suicide is a mystical and mysterious occurrence and phenomenon in ones life. If you were well and adequately educated you would know that the cause of suicide is complex. They could be financial, emotional/psychological, physical, environmental, medical, social/domestic/marital, religious beliefs etc. You should also know that suicide could be by default or accidental or for some people, a means to escape from disgrace or humiliations.

Dr. SEREBOUR, you went on strike because of money (salary increase)and many peolpe died. Have you brought them back to life yet.The whole Ghana begged you, including Otumfuor the Asantehene, Mr. Kofi Annan, the glergy and many many other people but wickedly refused until you got your money which you love more than your profession and human being. Why have you NOT talked about FAKE DRUGS in the country? etc etc You like CHEAP POPULARITY. Future will judge you and your gang who went on strike to kill innocent people.Don't forget.

No wonder Dr. Serebour is not a psychiatrist. There are a million and one reasons why someone will commit suicide. Without any investigation, Serbour has done a diagnosis. There are more suicides in the United Kingdom than in Ghana. Do you blame those too on economic hardship?
It is very strange that this conclusion is coming from a medical Doctor. Where is Dr Serebour train to become a medical doctor. Such a shame!

I don't fancy the GMA and their conduct but it is true. People will resort to 'end it all' if they can't find the means to survive.

First of all I do not know in what capacity that statement was made. I certainly do not believe this is the position of the GMA. Notwithstanding, it is unfortunate the GMA president could make such a blanket statement knowing as a physician you need the research to back your claim. Suicide occurs every where from the most powerful , richest countries to the poorest war torn countries. If you occupy such a position you need to be very careful what you say because any careless statement affects not just you but the profession you represent.
