“Don’t politicise the plight of people who are already frustrated” – Doctor fires NPP’s Dr Amoakoh

Dr. Ntiamoah Mensah, a medical doctor, has criticized Dr. Ekua Amoakoh. Dr. Amoakoh is a member of the New Patriotic Party’s Communications Team. She made comments on social media platform X about medical officers.

Dr. Amoakoh stated that medical officers under John Mahama are uncertain about their postings. She wrote, “For the first time in years, medical officers have waited one whole year at home with no sign of posting.”

In response, Dr. Ntiamoah Mensah accused her of politicizing the issue. He urged her not to exploit the frustrations of others. He asked, “Did that one year start in January?”

Dr. Ntiamoah added that it is annoying when people score political points from serious issues. He called for reforms instead of "shabby politics."

Dr. Amoakoh replied with an insult, saying comprehension was an issue for Dr. Ntiamoah. She claimed they provided timely clearance and improved conditions for service.

Dr. Ntiamoah responded by stating she would not engage in insults. She emphasized she was raised better than that and expressed regret over Dr. Amoakoh's behavior on social media.

She concluded by reiterating her message: don’t politicize the plight of colleagues who were neglected while in power.

Here are some key posts from both doctors:

Dr. Ekua Amoakoh:
“For the first time in years, medical officers have had to wait for one whole year at home with no sign of posting.”

Dr. Ntiamoah Mensah:
“I won’t go on the tangent of insults... Don’t politicize the plight of your own colleagues.”
