    Unfortunately, what Dr Anaba lacks is he not being from the south

  • Nii Osah Tagoe 8 years ago

    I know Dr Anaba very well when he was at the Ridge Hospital. He is an excellent Doctor. many travel up north to see him for treatment.

  • AX 8 years ago

    I do not personally know the man but if all you say here is true, this position is well-deserved and best wishes doc.

  • ghanatopten 8 years ago

    The writing is bogus because it fails to discuss the qualifications of the other applicants. It's because of the work of writers like this that most truth of Ghana's situation is missed on it's citizens. Keep fooling yourself ...

    It is very unintellectual to just publish the background of one candidate when other contestants are not known-very childish

  • ACCRAMAN 8 years ago

    If Dr. Anaba was educated in the "West" he would have been hailed as the right choice of candidate for the position advertised.

    It is vastly perceived in Ghanain that, America or Western Europe is far superior than Cuba in ...

    I think Ashantis and Akyems should boycott Ridge Hospital until an Ashanti is appointed CEO, probably in 20 Years time.

    Dr Anaba will be a great CEO.

  • Amidini 8 years ago

    It is rather unfortunate that premature thinking people always try to run northerners down when key position are offered them. Base on what Dr Anaba is not qualify ? These against people cannot prove their argument. Dr Anaba ...

    Ryan you are so naive in your thinking. God has given human being potential but we limit ourselves. There's nothing wrong with him being given this post if he has such a great knowledge.

  • TTH, MOST TRIBALISTIC!!! 8 years ago

    Khama' you are wrong, this has nothing to do with tribe. Dr. Anaba has all the accolades as a medical doctor, unfortunately, he has no educational background in medical administration. Being a patient - oriented doctor is wa ...

    Bravo Dr Anaba, we need more of your kind in Ghana, and shame to those protesting against his appointment. When are we Ghanaians going to stop our PHD syndrome and start to appreciate our own talented ones?. God bless Ghana

  • Kantanka 8 years ago

    These are all bogus awards that have no relevance to the practice of medicine. U are a stomach writer paid to peddle nonsense. I wish you were aware of the many qualified people who have genuinely contributed to the growth of ...

  • master 8 years ago

    From this write up alone I can see cronyism at play here. Where is the profile of the other applicants? You can only judge if he's the most qualified for the job by comparing with other candidates. Yes, by his profile he's qu ...

    He's a fake doctor . He doesn't deserve that position.
    Most of the things u said about anaba have no relation to the practice of medicine.
    Stomach writer!!!

  • All Die Be Die 8 years ago

    This DR.is realy helping the people of the North why is he coming south.I don.t get it?

  • Nii 8 years ago

    May be his coming to the South will open more doors for him to better serve the north. By the way he is free to decide where he wants to work.

  • kululu 8 years ago

    They are given the opportunity preferentially, so that they can return to the North to help accelerate its development but they abandon they North as soon as all get well with them they retire to the south. Who should they ex ...

    He is the best person for the job. He does not need to come from the south to qualify for this job. He Ghanaian and has gone through the necessary procedures. God bless you Mr.Anaba for your Service Motherland.

  • Obuama 8 years ago

    It will be interesting to compare the CV of Dr Anaba with that of the one who some of the personnel of the hospital are rooting for. I won't be surprised if elements of the Medical Association are pulling strings in the back ...

    ... well said. What can I add again. If for nothing he is also a Ghanaian.

  • JEROME 8 years ago

    Very sad. For as long as he a Northerner and a Cuban trained, he will never be accepted. Yes, his biggest problem is that, he is a Northerner and nothing else. Pathetic.

  • Klinker 8 years ago

    Are we saying that sickness knows who a northerner is or who a southerner is? If you can get a qualified person from Ridge then put him there so that Anaba can do his own thing. After all that doesn't take anything away from ...

    Is this acceptable? Or you want Thomas Anaba Koranteng-Addo?? trained in a medical college in Hawai or Honolulu!

  • Theo 8 years ago

    Hawaii or Honolulu?

    Don't write about things you don't know? What is the difference between Hawaii and Honolulu?

    Honolulu is a city in the state of Hawaii so what is this Hawaii or Honolulu nonsense?
