This SSS seems to have done more harm.Everyone believes the Oil money has arrived
No; thus proving, our DOCTORS have sold their sold to Political 'gimmickry'. and it supports the charge of influence from a Political Party.
Shame, shame, shame! Hoping it is not so, for the brightest in society would lose t ...

You are really blind and must be deaf on top of that. Use a little bit of common sense and some integrity
None of the doctors benefits from the money Kofi Annan amassed from his services at the UN. He has no authority or moral right to order anybody to go back to work. He can only plead with them.
IF ANNAN CANNOT ORDER DOCTORS TO RETURN TO WORK, HE CAN ADVISE THEM TO DO SO. IF THEY FAIL, GOV'T CAN SACKL ALL OF THEM. PWERIOD. WE ARE FED UP WITH YOUR STUPID NONSENSE. ARE YOU THE ONLY ONES WHO NEED BETTER SALARIES? BULLS ...

what Kofi Annan has in common he was there when all this in-regularities during the election 2012
Well said to that stupid. Common sense is common but not common to all people as to that stupid.
Why that every government that comes, the teachers, doctors, only they and not engineers go on strike? How can we end these strikes. What is in their condition of services contract? This is all about politics.
Not politics but based on cheating,dehumanization, respect failure on the part of people in the government. You can't look down doctors because you are parliamentarian
Allow the Doctors to do what will suite them. They are also human being and they deserve better but not NDCians only to "chop" Ghana money. Okay?
isnt he a bit late in making such a request , wouldnt it have been fairer for the govt to find the money to pay them ? slavery ended over a century or so ago , can a man not work for a decent wage to support his family instea ...

Kofi Annan, Away with your hypocritical style of life!
Rpberther Annane and her baby daddy are dupping people in the USA and that should be your concern. She will bring ur image into quetioning.
Anna should desist himself from this NDC style of goverace.
I hope our doctors will heed the call of Kofi Annan.
Hey, Kofi Annan,is it not too late for
your coming in to ask the Doctors to
consider or end the strike? We have loose somany souls already due to this

THANK YOU MY GOOD FRIEND. THESE POLITICAL ANIMALS THINK THE COUNTRY IS FOR THEM. LET THEM CONTINUE AND THEY WILL SURELY PAY DEARLY FOR IT.
YOUR OWN MOTHER WILL BE THE VICTIM OF THIS STRIKE AND YOU WILL SEE HOW IT IS TO GO TO A HOSPITAL WITHOUT A DOCTOR THERE TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR MOTHER. FOOLISH ANIMAL FROM NO WHERE.

HASSAN RASTA KEEP COOL AND STAY IN YOUR AZUU HOUSE VERY SOON GERMAN GOVT WILL FISH YOU OUT WITH YOUR FUCKING COMMENT WHY YOU DONT TELL YOUR TANII BRO TO PAY THE DOC YOU ARE BRAINLESS FOOL.
SUNKWA, THE HAVE ALWAYS RECEIVED SALARIES AND I BELIEVE THAT IF U WERE A PROFESSIONAL YOU WOULD ASK ARE THEY THE ONLY WORKERS IN GHANA. THE DOCTORS ARE NOT SAYING THEIR SALARIES WERE NOT PAID THEM.
How much did he make in the Oil-for-Food program using his son as frontman.

MY brother, this forum is full of brainless people. They politicise evrything. They will soon say that Kofi has been bribed by the NDC and that all doctors are pro-NPP.
Best comment so far . Too many pople who look at everything as political
Kofi Annan, should play a fair negotiator. How do u expect doctors to go to work,when these people have gotten huge bonuses and turn around and say no money.
THE TONE OF COMMENTS ON THIS PAGE MEANS THIS STRIKE IS MOTIVATED BY OPPOSITION NPP.WHY DONT YOU CARE FOR HUMAN LIFE BUT WILLING TO EVEN LET PEOPLE DIE IN CRAZE FOR POLITICAL POWER?
Who is Kofi Annan to call for immediate return of doctors. Wrong headline is not helpful.
John Mahama is the president and would never use immediate to doctors why should Kofi Annah.
Wait until your stupid arse is in the emergency ward soon.
This is a simple case: The Doctors have worked or performed services to the nation. Consequently, the government of Ghana HAVE TO pay them. The government should use the same means it employed to get money to pay the presiden ...

Please let us watch the clip showing Former UN boss Kofi Annan calling for immediate end to the ongoing strike by members of the Ghana Medical Association (GMA).
Kofi will never use such words.
Honorable Kofi Anna, I have always love. I love your words of wisdom to the Government health administrator. I love you.
See how NDC and Mahama are destroying Ghana
IT IS NPP WHICH IS INCITING ALL THESE STRIKES. SHAME ON NPP.
If I were Busumuru Kofi Annan, I will stay out of this imbroglio!!! Why? Because the controled looting by our parliamentarians is just mind boggling. Doctors, teachers and others need to eat too. If the national pie is well-c ...

In the U.S doctors earn more when they work in private practice. They earn less when they work for the gov't. If they want more money they should open their private hospitals.
I think the best way the Government will pay attention to the Doctors is for the doctors to play it hard on the parlimentarians and the MPs. That is to say they should refuse to give care to the parimenterians and the MPs eve ...

Oh Allah we pray that you eradicate those corrupt politicians from the system they are greedy,they steal the money and those who are more important in ghana are rather suffering.one day one day things would change.
Doctors' strike is a crime against humanity, and a violation of "The Good Samaritan" principles. The country has invested so much in them---such selfishness must not be tolerated, period.
WOFA KOFI ANNAN,THE DOCTOR'S NEED THERE MONEY SO STOP PLAYING
Ghanaian politics is DIRTY Full of insult please avoid it. You have been President of the whole world. Ghana is a village
He can do better if he cares. he is not supporting any party or leaders.
This is not politics, but trying to negotiate.
Would the doctors who are on strike collect their salaries for the month of April 2013?
As much as we respect the noble profession of Doctors and appreciate their contribution to maintenance of healthy human resource for the nation’s development, it gets to a point where their attitude begin to be a nuisance j ...
