Drama unfolded at the Tamale Teaching Hospital today [Monday], when the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Dr. Prosper Akambong, refused to hand over to Dr. David Zaawumya Kolbila as the incoming CEO.<\/p>\n

He suspected foul play in the purported appointment of Dr. Kolbila as his successor, hence his defiance.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”QVMCoFF7c41w5KFSEi7YtFCvnBa6rpXy”]He said he wouldn\u2019t vacate post until he receives an official letter from the Minister for Health, indicating whether he has been reassigned or dismissed.<\/p>\n

Dr. Prosper Akambong is left with 16 months to complete his tenure.<\/p>\n

NPP youth groups clash<\/strong><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, two youth groups of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) reportedly clashed over Dr. Zaawumya Kolbila\u2019s supposed appointment.<\/p>\n

Whereas a group calling itself the Coalition of Dagbon Youth groups in Tamale is opposed to Dr. Kolbila\u2019s supposed appointment, some members of the Kandahar Boys have declared their support for him.<\/p>\n

Eyewitness account suggested that, some members of the Kandahar Boys group foiled a news conference by the Coalition of Dagbon Youth groups held at the Tamale Kaladan Park, which sought to kick against Dr. Kolbila\u2019s supposed appointment.<\/p>\n

The scuffle left some members of the Coalition of Dagbon Youth groups injured.<\/p>\n

The Tamale Teaching Hospital has lately gained negative publicity on several allegations including maladministration, and the NPP vigilante groups’ call for the Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Prosper Akambong\u2019s dismissal.<\/p>\n
