Stop treating Breast Cancer at Prayer Camps – Women cautioned

The Central Regional Director of the Youth Employment Agency (YEA), Mrs. Sarah Afful has cautioned breast cancer patients to stop seeking healthcare from prayer camps when they show early signs of the disease.

She appealed to patients to rather seek early medical care at the hospital since the disease was not caused by witches or spiritual powers, but rather a medical condition and could be treated medically and not spiritually.

Mrs. Afful bemoaned the fact some breast cancer patients move from one church to another to seek treatment from pastors instead of them going to the hospital.

At a free medical screening at the Hemang Lower Denkyira and Awutu Senya Constituencies as part of this year’s campaign to mark the annual Breast Cancer Awareness Month celebrated in October, she called for an attitudinal change.

“As the Youth Employment Agency Director, it is my responsibility to make sure people are healthy to enable them to work for mother Ghana because one cannot be sick and work” Mrs. Afful observed.

The Breast Cancer screening exercise was conducted by a team of medical doctors, technicians, physician assistants, pharmacists and nurses.

A Health Promotion Officer at the Cape Coast Teaching Hospital, Madam Richlove Owusu who led the medical team told MyNewsGh.com reporter that wearing tight braziers also causes breast cancer and urged women to desist from such acts.

According to her, some of the women who were screened showed some symptoms and were quickly referred to the Cape Coast Teaching Hospital for early medical treatment.

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.

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.
