Benjamin Gyewu-Appiah, a member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and a communicator, was unable to hold back his tears after learning that a middle-aged woman who had been involved in an accident was reportedly abandoned in the bush by the staff of the Winneba Trauma Specialist Hospital.

Benjamin, a panel member on UTV's Adekye Nsroma, emphatically demanded that "heads must roll."



According to the report filed by UTV's Jacob Kubi, the woman who was receiving treatment at the hospital was alive when she was neglected at Gomoa Ojobi in the Central Region but died a few days after.

An eyewitness reported seeing the ambulance in the bushes and assumed they were taking the victim to the hospital, only to return later to find the woman lying helpless.

Further checks made by Jacob Kubi indicate that the woman was receiving treatment in the hospital but management decided to discharge her because no family member was coming for her.

Speaking in an interview with Jacob Kubi, Dr George Prah confirmed that the woman was an accident victim who was receiving treatment at the hospital.

However, they decided to take her to Gomoa Ojobi because that is where the woman claimed she was from and moreover no family member was coming for her.
