Community health nurses to boycott national immunization exercise over murder of colleague

Community health nurses have given government one week to find killers of a nurse at Sawua in the Ashanti Region or they boycott an upcoming polio immunization exercise.

Ruth Ama Eshun was found dead in suspected murder near her home a day after she left for work and never returned.

Police in Ashanti Region have reportedly arrested two people in connection with the incident and have cautioned several others.
