Doctors at the Tamale Teaching Hospital (TTH) have indefinitely suspended emergency and outpatient services, including the general OPD, antenatal clinic, specialist clinic, and paediatrics OPD.
This decision follows recent developments at the facility, which escalated during a surprise visit by the Minister of Health, , resulting in a heated exchange with members of the hospital's management team.
Additionally, the Chief Executive Officer, Dr Atiku Adam, was subsequently dismissed by the minister due to managerial concerns.
This action has sparked a series of reactions from the hospital staff, including the indefinite suspension of services in protest against the minister's conduct.
