This decision was communicated in a notice issued by Dr. Michael Leat, Chairman of the Komfo Anokye Doctors Association, dated March 14.

The strike, initiated on Wednesday, March 13, stemmed from accommodation challenges, with claims that over 30 colleagues had received eviction notices and were given a one-week ultimatum to vacate their bungalows at Danyame.

The disruption in healthcare delivery caused frustration and inconvenience to patients.
