Techiman-Krobo controversy: DCE explains decision to halt regional probe

The District Chief Executive (DCE) for Techiman North, Johnson Adom, has explained the decision to halt a regional probe into the controversy at the Techiman-Krobo Nursing and Midwifery Training College. The controversy arose after a protest by students over concerns about the institution's administration. Initially, both the Bono East Regional Security Council (REGSEC) and District Security Council (DISEC) formed a five-member committee to investigate the incident.

However, the Ministry of Health, which has supervisory responsibility over the school, subsequently established its own seven-member committee to conduct a separate investigation. Adom stated that the regional committee stepped aside to allow the supervising institution to carry out its investigation, avoiding duplication of efforts.

The Health Ministry's committee later visited the area, conducted its investigation, and submitted its findings to the Ministry of Health in Accra. Authorities are now awaiting the Ministry's report and recommendations to determine the appropriate course of action.
