Photos: New bill of health for the New Year as Multimedia staff undergo thorough medical exams

Doctors say many don't take the medical recommendation to undergo annual thorough screenings.

Taking the hint, the Multimedia Group Limited decided to "force the issue" by organising a pretty exhaustive check-up for close to 600 staff in Accra alone.

A New Year, a new bill of health was the agenda for management and so it turned out as staff spent Saturday going through a labyrinth of tables where different tests and checks were conducted.

Enthusiastic members of Islamic Medical Association of Ghana (IMAGH), a non-governmental, non-profit organisation were pretty happy to help the staff check their height, weight, blood pressure and figure out one's metabolic age.

It turned out some editors and technicians are teenagers as far as their metabolic age is concerned.

Hundreds of staff of Joy FM, Adom FM, Hitz FM, Multi TV, Myjoyonline.com and Adomonline.com went through screening for cardiovascular diseases such as Diabetes Mellitus, Hypertension and Hypercholesterinemia.

So the Kokomemle headquarters of the MGL turned into a screening center for employees in the media profession arguably one of the high-pressure cooker jobs in Ghana.

Next phase? The exercise goes to Kumasi, the Ashanti regional capital where Luv FM and Nhyira FM complete the list of media outlets under Ghana's most influential medial organisations.

Dr. Samed Tanko, led the IMAGH team which included a Consultant Cardiologist at the Korle-bu Teaching Hospital, Doctors, Nurses, Pharmacists, Biomedical scientists, Dieticians and clinical psychologists from major hospitals in Ghana to supervise the screening.

The IMAGH team also provided consultation and counselling to every staff based on their screening report.

Participants had the opportunity of having their cardiovascular risks calculated and their metabolic age assessed and compared to your real age.

Most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by their Pastors – Papa Shee

Evangelist Papa Shee says most Ghanaians have been initiated into occultism by Pastors. According to him, most Pastors in Ghana currently are occults and with the way they are been celebrated by their followers, they initiate them into occult groups without their knowledge. He mentioned that Ghanaians lack knowledge and that has always been the reason why Pastors take advantage of them. Related Posts Quoting a Scripture from Matthew, Papa Shee mentioned that no one should refer to a man as his/her spiritual father because the word speaks against it.

Residents of Samreboi cry on gov’t to fix their roads

Residents of Samreboi are up in arms with the Government of Ghana over neglect of their roads. According to residents, It has become very worrying as their bad road network is affecting not only economic activities but also their social activities. Residents of the timber and Cocoa producing town in the Western Region of Ghana say they have been unfairly treated by several governments; the neglect they say they do not know what to attribute it to. A worrying feature of their roads they say is the fact that moving from Samreboi to neighbouring villages and towns become impossible especially during the rainy season hence bringing economic activities to a standstill. Residents say even though the year has been declared “Year of Roads” they are yet to see a kilometre of road being constructed. To the Youth especially, leaders in their part of the country have failed them after years of exploiting them for their own interest. They say they will advise themselves if nothing is done ab...
