Quality air, transport, food, environment and water are social determinant of health as defined by the WHO. however, in the case of Ghana, lack of education and inefficiency in the part of health professionals are the major cause of poor

What do Prof Akosa and his friends and NPP lots see about Ghana that I do not see? What do they want GHS and the Health system in Ghana to be before they can say something positive about Ghana? Do we have more hospitals now than we had 50 years ago? Yes. Do we have more Poly Clinics now than we have 50 years ago? Yes. Do we have more District Hospitals now than we have 50 years ago? Yes. What about Regional Hospitals? Yes and better. Do we have health insurance that we did not have 50 years ago? Yes. So what does Akosa want as far as Health in Ghana is concerned? Do we have Teaching Hospital in Tamale? Yes. What about medical schools? We have more- KNUST, Korle BU, Cape Coast, Legon, Volta region, etc. Do people die in the USA, UK, EU, China, India, Russian, Australia etc? Yes. Ghana is good and moving forward. Let's encourage our leaders to do more instead of talking them down all the time everywhere,please, Akosa.

Logistics during GHS were very efficient during Prof Akosa's time with GHS. He made a lot of changes including child mortality rate. I witnessed how nutrition for children was a high key area to combat child under nourishment.

He was action-oriented and things changed after he left office. I worked in the service and I attest to the fact of his ambitions.

Most of the hospitals in Ghana are as dirty, sanitation is poor, infrastructure are poor. Staff cannot programme properly, come out with health programmes. All to the government lost of his priorities.

What transformation were you able to bring on board when you were the director general? Its hypocritical for your types who hv had the chance to cause change but failed to be accusing others of failure.

Ghana effectively doesn't have a health care system. What Ghana has can be described as a "grave yard"care system and that is what Ghana has with regards to our healthcare system.
We cannot in any logical way say, we have a healthcare system but it is poor. We don't have a healthcare system to be even described as being poor and that is a fact.

The prof. played very little to lift the image of health in Ghana when he was given the mandate. We can't even remember what he did for us.
