Nsawam, June 29, GNA – The Rev. Daniel Amoah Agyei, Vice Secretary of the Ghana Association of Faith Healers/Traditional Birth Attendant at the Akuapem South Municipality, has urged drivers not to allow unqualified herbalists and other drug sellers to do business in their vehicles and at lorry stations.
He said these unprofessional persons pose a danger to the health of the people since they sometimes ended up selling unwholesome drugs to unsuspecting customers.
Mr Agyei made the call in an interview with the Ghana News Agency, after a day's joint educational campaign for members of various branches of the Ghana Private Road Transport Union at Nsawam.
About 150 drivers were educated to demand documents such as registration certificates and other documentations from the Food and Drugs Board before they allowed drug peddlers to board their vehicles.
Rev. Agyei said the association was preparing to embark on an exercise to wipe out unregistered herbalists in order to protect the image of the profession.
Apostle Opare Adarkwah, Co-ordinator of the Association, urged herbalists and pastors to refer patients that they are not able to treat to medical centres instead of keeping them for a long period thereby worsening their health situation.
