The Minority Health Caucus in Parliament has rebuked the Minister of Health, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, for dismissing the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Tamale Teaching Hospital, Dr Adam Atiku.
Dr Adam Atiku's dismissal comes following a surprise visit by the minister to the health facility.
Mintah Akandoh, upon reaching the hospital amidst media presence and other dignitaries, confronted Dr Adam Atiku about the undesirable condition of the hospital which reportedly resulted in the unfortunate death of a patient.
In response, the CEO and some staff members had wanted the minister to appreciate the challenges they were facing but the situation turned confrontational as Mintah Akandoh berated Dr Atiku for seemingly acting insensitive to the plight of the patients.
