What about adding value to our primary products before export? Think about that not only nurses. Is exporting nurses also 24-hr economy.
We need help urgently not kolongo kaya mahatma. we know you
King promise again with another whimsical promise. Does this incompetent man has any advisors at all. His next promise will be to re-invent the wheel. Gyimii saa!
Why not build enough hospitals to absorb the nurses.
What is the current nurse per patient ratio in Ghana?
Our leaders are bereft of ideas.
No hope yet. We are still searching for Nkrumah II
Agree with you 100%. Why not build enough hospitals. Why not recruit them locally and try to achieve the WHO recommended patient/nurse ratio. Aah Mr ex president, are you coming back with such empty head again?
But NDC complained when Nana sent nurses to the caribbeans.
Hehehehe eiii this man, export yourself first. This country is doomed.
I honestly believe that the ghost of Atta Mills is finally haunting this man, Mahama. Doesn't Ghana under Akuffo Addo have bilateral arrangements with some Caribbean countries so that Ghanaian nurses are already working there ...

Good idea
Nurses are not commodities!!!
Why can't some people think outside the box. Have you ever heard of the term Remittances?
In Economics human resources can be likened to commodities. I know it may not be obvious to the uninformed
The issue here is, where are they going to be exported to, Cuba, Belize, Trinidad and Tobago, and at what cost vs the remittances that would be accrued both in the short and long run?
If they are going to be exported to t ...

Look at him this man! Already its happening
Why won't JDM conveniently say this. Under your presidency, you couldn't employ them, and you know for sure you won't be able to do so in the unlikely event that you become president again.
Modern day slave trade
The most sensible thing to do. Thank God someone has their head properly screws on.
Trained nurses can't be posted and we are complaining about nurses departure. Meanwhile, we keep pouring out at least 50,000 new nurses e ...

A clear evidence of a lazy man.So your 24 hour economy can't absorb the nurses?
Instead of creating job for them in Ghana you want to export them to where what about those places don't they have citizens, this is a man without vision when you are to build more hospitals and staffing them with your own ...

He can promise anything for your vote. Including arresting Satan.
Instead of creating jobs for them, you are going to export them. What about teachers and the rest of the youth?
According Ablakwa Mahama will never create jobs for the youth when he was addressing Deeper life ministry youth in Kumasi during incompetent Mahama reign.So don’t be surprised he will not create jobs for them.
Nana Addo government is already doing it. Masa, come out with something new. So you can't think of your own new policy after all these years in opposition? It shows John is a spent force
MAHAMA AGAIN EEIISH....ZONGO BALLAAWO
Infantile Stupidity.
Mahama is a known Thief and an Incompetent idiot.
Is this a Policy ?
Kwasea, when you stopped paying nurses their allowances, how could they have completed their courses or training for you to export them and chop he foreign exchange. Odwan
Visionless Mahama
Professionalized the Brain drain.
Trying to dispose Ghanaians
Hahaha
The man and for that matter NDC has nothing worthy to offer Ghana oooooo
Maybe the medicare givers can have work in ghana, if we develop the entire healthcare system all over the country. So that the public healthcare will and can have the same quality as the private healthcare. So that the elites ...

Great point!
This man is visionless , he can’t think far on how to employ them inland
Export Human beings. What's wrong with Mahama
WE DONT EVEN HAVE SUFFICENT NURSES IN GHANA SO HOW IS HE GOING TO "EXPORT" NURSES TO OTHER COUNTRYS??? WHAT IS THIS MAN SMOKING?
John mahama new very well that Ghanaians like abroad or living in abroad, so he is only giving them what the nurses want to hear, just to win their votes
Do we export human beings? Come again Mr Mahama. Where are your advisors, Mr. Mahama? Can't you use another term to solve the unemployment problems? What did you do to nurses during your presidency? Please wise up?
When you send all the nurses abroad who’s are you going to use for 24 hr econome. ?
John Ford mahama kromfoo panin kwasiato like that ofui like mahama odwanfunu. The confident trickster John Ford drunkard mahama. The apio face mahama kromfoo techiamoah.
A disclaimer: I'm not affiliated with any political party in Ghana. I have nothing against former President John Mahama. I'm just a patriotic Ghanaian in the diaspora. With that out of my chest, I can now freely speak my mind ...

Agreed! Like Cuba
Dear ex. President Mahama, please are you aware that the WHO has blacklisted Ghana and some 'third' world' countries as not having enough nurses and as such you cannot 'export' nurses. What Odwan funu must understand is that ...
