Every worker is demanding pay increase but no worker is talking about increasing productivity and improving quality of products and services.

Telling such lies do not help anyone, Kwabena.
It seems you are not quite abreast with what is going on in Ghana.
You would not be happy to receive less pay just because the 'name' has been changed to "SSSS". To compensate for such errors, a 'conversion' difference has been agreed upon, to be paid to those workers affected. And demanding it does not mean you are demanding pay increase.

Thanks but I sincerely understand the situation. How much percent of our GDP goes into paying government workers? But, arguably, the productivity and quality output of government workers are low (comparing with the private sector). As an employer, I under the situation better than you understand.

If the quality of services provided by the pharmacist is low, then do not worry if they go on strike afterall the quality of their services is low and unproductive.

Obviously i need to break things down for you ewe idiots . The Germans being the lead tribe of Europe isnt as stupid as you wish , more than half of the Nobel prize winners before the second world war were german yet Hollywood British and Jewish propaganda has made them appear to be silly and petty but if you look deep and do your research you will see even the war was a brilliant maneuver to save the future of their people . today we see the only true winners of that war are the Germans , Japanese , Chinese , Russians and the only superpower the Americans. we Akans have embarked on a similar path to also ensure the future for our children without you. whether we separate in peace like Czechoslovakia or rivers of your blood flow is your choice . personally i would prefer war so we wipe you out in revenge for what you have done since kotoka. the Germans know this is inevitable so they have given their respect and we in return will make a strategic alliance with them so they have all the natural resources they need just as Obama did for the Americans. your Chinese criminal allies you sent us we shall send back to you . like it or not we are number one with the potential beyond your dreams which any enlightened mind can see . we shall secure a standard for our people better than Beverly hills and unlike you we know how but never with you fools. check Forbes list of the top ten richest Ghanaians and guess what not a single envious ewe in fact mainly Akans and all made it before the intensive persecution of the ewe dominated rawlings regime. since then a stunted growth and misery but no more, payback time is very soon , long live the Republic of Akan

What about if farmers also decide not to sell their foodstuff? Ghana is now in a state of anarchy where life is short, brutish, and nasty.

I just don't understand why the government will allow things to degenerate to this extent. Pls Prez, do something for once and don't wait till things collapse beyond redemption. Is it a question of impotence or?

Let any medical doctor or pharmacist who think he worth his salt resign if he disagrees with the system. We are fed up! Let any medical doctor or pharmacist openly declare that they will never die.

Pharmacist, doctors, farmers, cleaners and all of us will eventually die one day. Hospital or no hospital pharmacist or no pharmacists. We are tied.

Everybody in Ghana is very important; period. without the police no medical doctor or pharmacist will be safe enough to go to work. Without the poor farmer, no police or doctor will be strong enough to go to work. Indeed, medication alone without food will constitute poison. We are tied. Please resign en mass if you think that is the only solution. Dander headed cononuts and thundering thyphoons.

A young man goes into a drugstore to buy condoms. The pharmacist says the condoms come in packs of 3, 9 or 12 and asks which the young man wants.
"Well," he said, "I've been seeing this girl for a while and she's really hot. I want the condoms because I think tonight's "the" night. We're having dinner with her parents, and then we're going out. And I've got a feeling I'm gonna get lucky after that. Once she's had me, she'll want me all the time, so you'd better give me the 12 pack." The young man makes his purchase and leaves.

Later that evening, he sits down to dinner with his girlfriend and her parents. He asks if he might give the blessing, and they agree. He begins the prayer, but continues praying for several minutes. The girl leans over and says, "You never told me that you were such a religious person." He leans over to her and whispers, "You never told me that your father is a pharmacist,is he not going to join the strike?"

I URGE THE GOVERNMENT NOT TO BUDGE ON THIS ONE BY GIVING IN TO THESE PARASITES. THEY MAKE PEOPLE DIE ANYWAY WHEN THEY ARE AT POST SO WHAT REAL DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE ON STRIKE. THEY ARE A PEOPLE WHO LACK CONSCIENCE AND PURPOSELY AND NEGLIGENTLY LOOK ON WHILE THEIR PATIENTS DIE BECAUSE THEY FAIL TO INTERVENE IN TIME.

I think it´s a disgrace that doctors put there own salary questions before peoples life, in Europe or in USA, those doctors would get disbarred right away, and forfeit the doctors licence right away, and on top of that they would be hated for all times by the general public.

And the president what is he doing to protect the people, it seems nothing, it´s terrible, and inhuman, but again, it shows in all vital parts that the doctors of Ghana, don't care about anything except them selves, and it would be very nice, to stand beside God the day those doctors have to explain how they can let people die, just because they want more money...

I am a doctor my self, and have been for many years, but never have i seen such disgusting behaviour from any of my college, not once...

When i was reading this article, the first question i had in my mind, what, doctors letting people die, and because they want more money,,,oh my god what kind of as holes are that, i say, they are like murderers, they kill for profit...

And your president, this mahama character, what is he all about, but then again, he is probably to busy to transfer Ghana money to his own accounts some where else...my god...what is wrong with you people, how can you accept as holes like that, why don't you run them into the sea...why..

I am very much disappointed and sad at the same time. I can't believe that the lady opposite my store just died because there are no doctors to take care of her. Where are we heading to as a nation in this twenty first century. I can easily go to South Africa for a check up but what will happened if its an heart attack.
