At a press conference held by Minority Members on the Health Committee of Parliament, the Ranking Member, Dr , stated that the government's failure to implement the agreed-upon conditions of service, despite being in office for six months, and its approach following the Ghana Registered Nurses and Midwives Association (GRNMA) strike declaration, reflect dishonesty. "It is the belief of the Minority in this House that the government has acted and continues to act in bad faith regarding this standoff," the Ranking Member said.
