The Minority Caucus in Parliament has demanded the immediate arrest of individuals who unlawfully closed the National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA) office in Ejisu. This action is seen as a direct attack on public service delivery.
Dr. Nana Ayew Afriyie, Ranking Member on Parliament’s Health Committee, spoke out against the incident. He described the protest as unacceptable and called for swift action against the perpetrators.
The youth involved are reportedly from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in Ejisu. Their actions have drawn sharp criticism from the minority.
The Minority Caucus stated that such disruptions negatively impact citizens who rely on the NHIA for essential health services. They emphasized the importance of maintaining access to these services.
Authorities are urged to investigate the matter thoroughly. The goal is to hold those responsible accountable for their actions. This includes ensuring the NHIA office can operate without interference.
