🚨❌ Breaking: An official appeal has now been submitted to the premier league by Westham regarding their disallowed goal against Arsenal by PGMOL.
Possible outcomes could include a two-point deduction from Arsenal or even a complete replay of the match if their appeal go through. 👀
Your thoughts?

@DavioNgugi @chag_official I think it is more of a personality and managerial issue. Some clinical heads can make the working environment extremely frustrating and difficult to navigate. Do you really think the clinical heads will be better???

CHAG needs to change their ways and put a clinical person as the head of the facility. These non-medics are really frustrating staffs 😒😒.
You’re running a hospital not a private business @chag_official

“If you’re a medical professional and tired of the work, you can resign. Ghana will survive”
- Dr Mark Nawaane, Chair of the Health Committee, has told medical professionals who feel exhausted or disillusioned with the profession to resign rather than compromise the ethics and standards of healthcare delivery.

@KafuiDey We need to have a serious conversation about the assemblies. Ga East municipal is the worst, poor roads just close to the assembly, people building on waterways and yet the assembly does nothing. . @gyaigyimii @KafuiDey

Which local assembly in Accra is working well?
Where pavements are left as pavements and not taken over by kiosks, motorcycles, cars, goods, wares & merchandise?

Humans spent centuries writing books, essays, articles, and research papers.
Then we used all that human writing to train AI systems to write like humans.
Then we built another AI system to inspect the writing and say, “This looks AI suspiciously.”
So now we have one machine trained on humans to sound human, and another machine trained on humans to figure out whether the first machine sounds a little too human.
And after all that, a stressed human still has to make the final call.

@DavidOkoliMD @atkkay You don’t write the licensed exams, there’s a separate process at MDC where you’re given a provisional license for residency. Will have to verify if things have changed

Seeing the news about Ghanaian peacekeepers coming under attack in Lebanon brought back memories I still carry.
This photo was taken during my UN peacekeeping mission in Northern Mali.
Before we were deployed, we had already heard the stories about Northern Mali.
That mission had gained a reputation for danger.
Over the years it claimed the lives of more than 300 UN peacekeepers, making it one of the deadliest peacekeeping missions in UN history.
So even before arriving, the weight of that reality sat with us.
Within four months of returning from Côte d’Ivoire, where I served as medical officer for my unit, I was deployed again.
In the military, sometimes there is only one answer:
→ Yes sir.
→ No questions asked.
This time I was the medical officer in charge of the Ghana Aviation Unit (Airforce) in Northern Mali.
For one year, Northern Mali (Gao Supercamp) became our world.
There were nights nobody slept.
Not because we weren’t tired.
Because you never knew when the missile detector siren would go off.
The bunker quickly became our second room.
When the alarm sounded and you were too far from your own unit, you ran into the nearest UN camp you could reach.
And sometimes the siren would go off while you were in the middle of treating a patient.
That was my closest experience to a war zone, the kind I had only seen in movies.
But what stayed with me most happened after I returned home.
For months, the sound of an ambulance or police siren could trigger panic attacks.
It took time for my mind to accept that I was no longer there.
That experience taught me something I will never forget.
Peacekeeping missions do not always end when the deployment ends.
Sometimes the deeper wounds are the ones people cannot see.
I share this not to debate the politics of conflict, but to speak to its human cost.
That is why psychological support for peacekeepers matters.
Not as an afterthought.
But as part of caring for the people we send into danger.
The little I experienced left me with one lasting conviction:
Peace is always worth protecting.
Because once you have seen how fragile it is, you understand how costly confrontation can be.
My thoughts are with the Ghanaian troops and with peacekeepers everywhere who stand in difficult places so others can live in safer ones.
Sometimes the hardest battles begin after the mission ends.
If you know someone who has served in a conflict zone or peacekeeping mission, check on them.

@atkkay We have no idea what is happening… During our time, only about 5% of my entire class were interested in working abroad… these days I am hearing it's in the 80-90% of the cohort. Most are already learning to write the USMLE (USA), etc.
