GRMNA MEMBERSHIP AND POSITIONS:
I was the secretary of the Western-Central Zone of GNMTA in School, and I became a registered member
of the association in 2006 after my registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council. In the same
year, I was nominated as the acting district secretary of the association for Bibiani Municipal Hospital
and was elected as the substantive district chair in 2008. During my tenure of office as a district chair, I                                              assisted to build a formidable district branch of the association in the locality and solicited for funds to
organize massive programs that ignited the interest of members in the district and other neighboring
districts. This achievement was recognized by the Western Regional Council and in 2009; I was voted
overwhelmingly as the regional secretary and then finally elected to be the western regional chair in
