The Overlord of the Mamprugu Traditional Area, Nayiri Bohagu Abdulai Mahami Sheriga, has called on the government to increase the number of health professionals in the North East Region to address persistent staff shortages. He stated that the lack of healthcare workers was hampering the delivery of healthcare in the region and urged the Regional Health Directorate to take steps to attract and retain health workers.
The North East, a deprived region, requires health workers to remain and support its growth, according to Nayiri. When the Acting Regional Director of Health Services, Dr Joyce Emakayor Bening, visited him at his palace in Nalerigu, the regional capital, Nayiri emphasized the need to prioritize the region for health worker postings and ensure quality healthcare for residents.
Dr Bening, the first woman to hold the position since the region's creation, assured Nayiri of her dedication to improving healthcare delivery and pledged to collaborate with traditional authorities and stakeholders on this issue.
