The Ashanti Regional Director of the National Service Secretariat (NSS), Alex Opoku-Mensah has attacked a nurse at post at the Manhyia Government Hospital in Kumasi.
The attack was reportedly in response to the alleged intimidation of his daughter who is undergoing his medical housemanship by the said nurse.
His daughter who happened to be in the same hospital had reported to him about the nurse who he accused of intimidating his daughter at the health facility.
In an audio recording, the angry NSS director is heard raining insults on the nurse describing the nurse who questioned his daughter as an unqualified nurse who gained admission into nursing training school through sexual favors.
Meanwhile, the Ghana Registered Nurses and Midwives Association (GRNMA) has called for the dismissal of the NSS Director with immediate effect insisting he has no business holding any position in public service.
“Public Services Commission and Government for that matter should sack the said Regional Director immediately because he is not fit for the Director position he holds in the Public Service. He had absolutely NO RIGHT to enter Manhyia District Hospital and verbally abuse and threaten the nurse in question who was on duty at the time.
