Even Doctors whose training is ‘more delicate and essential’ are freely trained – Muntaka to GLC

The Minority Chief Whip and Member of Parliament(MP) for Asawase, Alhaji Mohammed Muntaka Mubarak has said: “even doctors” whose training is more essential and hinges on life and death are freely trained in large numbers not to talk of lawyers.

Mr. Muntaka said this when he seconded a  motion tabled by Effutu MP and Deputy Majority Leader Alexander Afenyo Markin to order the General Legal Council GLC to admit some 499 students who passed the exam but could not be admitted due to a supposed “lack of space”.

Muntaka stated that the position of the GLC is conservative and retrogressive and did not serve the country well.

“Training a doctor is more critical than training a lawyer because when the person leaves as a doctor he deals with knives and lives directly while in the theatre. By just one stroke of a mistake, he’ll kill a human being” he said on the floor of Parliament.

“Even that they find a way to go around it to train more annually in this country … and you gatekeep a very conservative and backward system that you can only do this at one place…that it disenfranchises so many people,” he added.

On his part, Afenyo Markin who tabled the motion said Parliament has a duty to give voice to the people whom each MP represents. The motion had overwhelming endorsement from both sides of the house.

“Ghana Law School, General Legal Council must take the views of this Parliament seriously, by quickly taking steps to remedy the situation. This is Parliament, the voice of the people.” Mr. Afenyo said.

“And the representatives of the people are saying that if you said the past mark is 50 percent, then all those who made 50 percent and above – they are about 400 – it is not too late to admit them because they have passed,” he added.

Parliament consequently made an order to the GLC to admit the 499 students. It is unclear yet whether the GLC will comply.

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.
