加纳总统 John Dramani Mahama 先生解雇塔马勒（Tamale）教学医院（TTH）首席执行官 Adam Atiku 博士，此前有报道称，该医院事故与急诊病房一名患者的近期死亡可能是由于疏忽所致。
这一决定是在人们对这家医院医疗服务日益恶化的状况愈发担忧之际作出的，据悉，该医院有几台重要的医疗设备已无法正常使用。针对这一情况，卫生部长 Kwabena Mintah Akandoh 先生于 4 月 22 日对该医院进行了突击访问，这也是评估北部地区医疗服务面临挑战的更广泛努力的一部分。部长在访问期间表示，尽管已向供应商付款，但闲置的医疗机器数量之多令人严重关切。Akandoh 先生还强调了 Tamale 地区持续的水危机对医院运营的影响，称这是一个更广泛的区域性问题，需要总统紧急干预。谈到解决医院设备问题的计划时，Akandoh 先生表示，卫生部的任何行动都将依据医院管理层设定的优先事项。他敦促居民继续使用该医院的服务，并向他们保证医疗服务会有所改善。“等我们处理完这些事情后，我们都会再仔细考虑，因为我一个人做不了所有事情，我必须让他们参与进来，我们正在一起思考解决办法。大家应该保持冷静，继续来这家医院就医。” Akandoh 先生说道。
Mahama Sacks TTH CEO Following Allegations of Negligence
President John Dramani Mahama has dismissed the Chief Executive Officer of the Tamale Teaching Hospital (TTH), Dr. Adam Atiku, following reports of alleged negligence that led to the recent death of a patient at the hospital’s Accident and Emergency Ward.
The decision comes amid growing concerns about the deteriorating state of healthcare delivery at the facility, where several essential medical equipment are reportedly non-functional.
In response to the situation, Minister for Health, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, paid an unannounced visit to the hospital on Tuesday, April 22, as part of a broader effort to assess the challenges facing healthcare delivery in the Northern Region.
Speaking during the visit, the Minister expressed serious concern over the number of idle medical machines, despite payments being made to suppliers.
He also highlighted the impact of the ongoing water crisis in Tamale on hospital operations, describing it as a broader regional issue that requires urgent presidential intervention.
Addressing plans to resolve the hospital’s equipment issues, Mr. Akandoh said any action from the Ministry would be informed by the priorities set by hospital management.
He urged residents to continue using the hospital’s services, assuring them of improved healthcare delivery.
“When we finish with them, we will all think through it, because I can not do it all alone, I have to involve them, and we are thinking through it together. Everybody should remain calm and let us continue to patronise the facility,” he stated.
