Sakyiwaa is a ward assistance,not a nurse.
Akosua Sakyiwaa is one of the kindest Ashanti women. There are worse ones like Konadu Agyemang-Rawlings. See how she has reduced JJ to nothing.
Ashanti girls are most beautiful, but so cantankerous that men must fear them ...

Can u imagine her working at korlebu teaching hospital? she would abuse every patient.
Is a shame. No empathy, just working for the money. She should rot in jail!
The stupidity of some of those who come here are amazing. We have elderly people allegedly being abused by their caretakers and all that you care about is whether they are Nursing Assistant or R/LPN or BSN. What difference do ...

This case brings to the forth the uncaring and lack of compassion among Ghanaian healthcare workers, especially nurses. It's quite disheartening to note that most Ghanaian nurses in Ghana are very rude and don't empathize wit ...

Lack of discipline and respect is a result of poor raising at home. You know very well majority of Ghanaians are likewise.
As black Africans don't think about their fellow human being,particularly the children and the elderly, the Europeans care more about children ,sick,and the elderly.Afircans are simian
Be careful not to be judgmental until all the facts are out and you've heard the full story on both sides. This is inflammatory partial reporting of the facts. Nothing in here was mentioned of the detailed cross examination ...

We are not doing politic here
i know this lady personally she is being accused falsely. u guys dont understand the law innocent until proving guilty.
I was in court with her today lies upon lies.
If this is not your career get out of it. Services first. If you doing this just for the money you will be miserable.
Nursing is a very stressful profession and many immigrant nurses or nurses aides working abroad are not appreciated. Fellow nurses do not mistreat the elderly out of frustration, because you will also age as time goes on. Tre ...

Several of these dead-end jobs do not really care about the patients;it is all about the 'mullas'! In addition to physical abuse, many are known to to rip patients off - money,as well as other personal valuables(jewellery, in ...

ONLY ILLITERATE ASHANTIS WILL BEHAVE LIKE THAT
TYPICAL OSUOFIAS (ASHANTIS) IN LONDON.
The heading is wrong and confusing. This lady is a care assistant and not a nurse. Also, we should leave the judgement to the court for now.
Kwasea what tribe are you state it here and i will give you my Ashanti stupidity. Kwasea again
Hope it not true, otherwise she will find it difficult to get another work,
The prosecutors always add some to it.
Charity begins at home.These Ghanaian nurses have not respect for patients back here and then carry that attitude again to abroad.Shame on you.Without this patience you people have no job. Ghanaians have to start taking them ...

Lets also hear what she says and then the Jury or magistrate will decide... The evidence is bad but guys lets see what happens
I wouldn't condone her behaviour if she's found guilty of these charges,but why is this becoming common practice in old peoples homes and their like all over Western-Europe?Blame it on government policies which make it possib ...

Health Care Assistant is NOT a Nurse. This headline is misleading.
This does not in anyway reduce this serious allegation.
Abuse is abuse, and whether it is committed by a rocket scientist or a neurosergeon it does not change it.
We should be discussing why this is a potential problem rather than whether she is a medical officer or a janitor.
They do ignore suffering patients at Korle Bu and 37. They make all sorts of remarks against patients they are supposed to be taking care off and they get away with it. They carry the same attitude to the UK
Now they see ...

A Nursing assistant would be better than a Ghanaian nurse.
it's good that you guys are wtinessing the misinformation that this a NPP mouthpiece churns out to the their gullible readers; one wonders if they do it out of ignorance or they're simply being mean.
Not a qualified nurse pls
so automatically she is a Nigerian. Ghanaian health care assistants are ery compassionate human beign. Been married to Nigerian, she must have taking their behaviours.
Xenophobia. u need a check up,u are a swine.......... i can see where u coming from.
Typical behaviours of some Ghanaians.
They should take notice of Kofi Anan and really be in service of the people and not of their selfisness!
Jail that monkey she thinks she is in lawless Ghana where no one cares about anybody.
Pls she is not a nurse. Health care assistants are mostly illiterates without any training at all. They want to make a living in UK but they are very wicked and inhuman. I am a nurse in London and I just hate working with the ...

What do you mean they are illitrate, i guess they get the necessary training before or on the job training. Without them too the job will be difficult for the nurse to do.
Oh Maame,you've betrayed your compatriot.i don't believe the whole story. ....give a dog a bad name and ,............
The mentality of Ghanaian nurses carries itself to UK. That is how they have been treating our mothers and grandmothers in Ghana when they go to hospital . Sakyiwaa was should be used as an example for nurses in Ghana to lear ...

was she thinking she was in Ghana where people's rights are violated any how? she should be jailed
If found guilty she should be jailed for at least five years. Thinking that she could send her bad attitude from Ghana where people are not treated with respect especially in the hospitals to the UK. I bet you she will not g ...

Who told you Ghanaians are not cruel? Ghanaians don't respect anyone. In fact they don't respect anything.
thankxx a million.pass this wisdom to your children.
it is true that issues relating to racism cannot be taken out of such a verdict in a white community but on the contrary, the alleged behaviour of the nurse in question is very typical of nurses here in ghana and common in mo ...
