    However, the Mental health Nurse said, there are many mentally ill people roaming (wandering) around our streets and market places which when necessary medical and psychological care given will help rehabilitate them into our society to fending for themselves and the nation. There are many drug addicts in our ghettos and slums wasting away in all areas that the government must pay attention to, to harnessing their energies ,skills and talents to boosting the state of the economy.

    He questioned that, why don’t we make good use of that Saglemi Affordable Housing Project by camping and training these youth and rehabilitating them back into the society to adding values to the economy since we are in crisis as a nation?.

    “Mental Health and Psychiatric personnels are ready to helping in the psychological care as other experts will as well be helping in the Technical and Vocational training.

    It is high time government thought outside the box to developing the country. When that program and policies are well outlined with no loopholes for corrupting the system, we shall as a country produce great tailors and seamstresses, Carpenters ,Masons, farmers , steel benders, and many others that will help building the socioeconomic growth of Ghana. State farms can be developed from such products to feeding the state” he said.

    Many prisoners can as well be brought to such centre for proper rehabilitation before being released into the society to avoid life difficulties that do meet them after prison stays.

    “I am by this article calling on all well established CSOs, the media, Stakeholders, government appointees, technical experts to adding their voices to this suggestions to making better uses of the Saglemi Affordable Housing Project” he narrated.

    It is possible with the right will and synergy. The borrowing is too much, we can create more revenues by rehabilitating our youth who are vulnerable and wasting away.

    Mental Health Total Health.
    God bless our homeland Ghana and make us great and strong.

  • Increase Rate Of Suicides, Homicide And Crimes In Ghana Needs Holistic Approach Through Mental Health Empowerment

    Increase Rate Of Suicides, Homicide And Crimes In Ghana Needs Holistic Approach Through Mental Health Empowerment

    Open Letter To Parliament And Government.

    Suicide is the individual killing of oneself.
    Homicide is the individual killing of another person .

    Victims of suicide were predominantly males 85.92% with age range 10-86 years(1997-2019 ), and women most often the victims of Homicide .
    Suicide by hanging 67.94% , the use of firearms 18.32% ,and self poisoning 8.93% were the common methods used by the victims.
    Marital or relationships and family problems were commonly cited as the reasons for the commission of Suicides.( Online news Portals on suicides)

    Globally, estimated one million people die of suicide every year; this translates to one death every 35 seconds . Many more attempt suicide and this often not disclosed ,as suicide is deemed criminal in some countries .
    Suicide is the second leading cause of death among under 30 years old globally and occurs throughout the lifespan. Suicide accounted for 1.4% of all deaths worldwide.

    Ghana suicide death rate is estimated at 1500 annually.
    In the year 2020 and early weeks of 2021, there have been several news of individuals taking their lives . Most prominent among were some senior police officers and others.
    People hanging themselves, women poisoning themselves and their children , gun shots at self and targeted shooting of people perceived to be homicides ,arm robbery and road accidents .

    Suicide commission is usually attributed to social and psychological problems. Solitary living, extreme helplessness, hopelessness,and worthlessness,or defeat and failure, which may result from depressive psychopathology,are often linked to suicidal ideations and then to suicide.
    Traumatic events ,such as the loss of close relation causes emotional distress and can lead to an ending inability to cope with the loss.
    Financial or legal difficulties are another.
    Social factors also triggers the suicidal and and homicidal tendencies.
    Abuse of drugs lead to increased crimes.
    Excessive thinking and stress lead some drivers causing suicide and homicide on the roads.

    With the above detailed information on suicide and homicide and crimes. It is my suggestions and appeal to parliament, government to help establish Utramodern Psychological And Counselling Hospitals in Ghana that will make it more convenient for prominent and wealthy people to access mental health care without mingling with those people receiving treatments at the psychiatric Hospitals to at least curb the stigmatisation.

    I believe, this will help reduce the suicidal ideations and homicides and then give Ghana a healthy nation full of healthy mental capacity in carrying out public and social tasks to boosting the economy and human resources.

    The future is Mental Health Empowerment for a healthy nation , Ghana.
    Thanks.
