 This according to Asare Bediako Obed, Greater Accra Zonal President of the Ghana Association of Health Training Institutions (GAHTI) is the surest way to go in helping reduce the burden of unemployment on the youth especially trainee nurses and midwives thereby paving way for them to live in dignity.

Trainee nurses and midwives are currently battling with Government over unemployment issues two years after completion of studies which has become a huge challenge in Ghana.

Pres. Asare Bediako Obed made the appeal whilst presenting assorted items to the inmates of Pantang Mental Hospital on behalf of Greater Accra zone of GAHTI in Accra on Saturday.

Items donated included 2 bags of rice, 15 bags of sachet mineral water, packs of toothpaste, toilet rolls, detergents, secondhand clothes, shoes and bags amongst others.

Nelson Kwarko-Darboh, a nursing officer who receives the items on behalf of the hospital administration thanked GAHTI for the kind gesture, pledging the items will be utilized effectively for the intended purposes. He appealed to other benevolent organizations and individuals to emulate the gesture.

The donation was made possible through kind contribution of members of the association who are students from various nursing and midwifery training intuitions in Accra and solely supported by Dr. Ezanetor Rawlings, NDC Parliamentary Aspirant for Korley Klottey Constituency.

According to Asare Bediako Obed, the donation forms part of activities to mark the association’s sixteen years anniversary which targets specific wards namely 11 (female) 12 and 13 respectively hence the move to support in order to put a smile on faces of the patients.

It equally seeks to create awareness on GAHTI’s week celebration scheduled to take place in April, 16th -24th on the theme: “The role of health trainees in the prevention of breast cancer”.

Meanwhile GAHTI members earlier before the donation conducted a clean-up exercise getting rid of filth thoroughly within and around the three specific wards earmarked as beneficiaries of GAHTI.

The occasion also witnessed the introduction of 21 beautiful ladies who will be vying for the face of GAHTI, a beauty queen pageant slated for April this year where one queen who stands the chance of winning will be crowned as the next face of GAHTI.

GAHTI is an association of health trainees from both private and public health training institutions in Ghana. The Greater Accra Zone is made up 19 Schools with about 6, 300 membership.

Photo of a man with amazingly ‘super head’ causes a stir on social media

Image
Many eyes have seen it but are yet to believe. To those who are convinced that God's creature exits on earth with such a weird shape of head have been left totally flabbergasted and worried too.That is human nature; doubting Thomases everywhere. A man whose photo has been making rounds on social media platforms has been the one in the centre of a huge controversy that rendered onlookers astounded and divided. The photograph in question has really created a scene that is of comic relief and over-sensational. The problem per se is not about his facial appearance but borders specifically on the 'caricature' shape of his head coupled with his jaw-jutting chin which has become the point of attraction at all cost.  It appears no amount of words could best describe the shape of his 'Hill-Valley-Hill Head' which looks very sparkling without hairs on it.  But some social media users who caught sight of the photograph have been reacting with varying
