A group calling itself, Concerned Citizens of Sunyani has called on authorities not to confirm Dr Emmanuel Kofi Amponsah as the substantive director of the Brong Ahafo Regional Hospital.
A statement signed by the group’s spokesperson, Atta Kusi indicated that the acting director is not capable to manage the day-to-day activities of the hospital.
Kindly Read Their Full Unedited Statement Below:
We have been following with grave concerns the scary possibility of Dr Emmanuel Kofi Amponsah becoming the substantive director of the Regional Hospital in Sunyani of the Brong Ahafo Region.
As people who are genuinely interested in the well-being of the people of Sunyani and the effective administration of our hospital, it will be unfair to our conscience to sit unconcerned for Dr Kofi Amponsah to be confirmed despite his obvious and glaring managerial inefficiencies.
Below are a few reasons we oppose his confirmation as substantive director.
1. Dr Amponsah who has been acting as the director for some time now has been at loggerheads with key members of his top management and even some junior ranked officials at the facility. It is on record that the regional health director has in the recent past intervene to mediate in matters between him and his management, but failed.
2. The acting director also shows no respect to his junior staff creating an atmosphere of fear and discomfort for staff working under him.
3. In a further disturbing development, Dr Amponsah has allegedly employed a lady who he is publicly known to be dating as his personal secretary making it difficult for other senior officials to bring her to order if she falls out of line with disciplinary codes of the facility.
4. He also claims he suffered before the position became vacant for him and so will not allow anyone or process to stampede him because he has the backing of the health minister and his family.
5. He is also seen on numerous occasions using the same Toyota V8 he complained about when purchased by his predecessor for private funerals and other purposes.
Thank you.
