“Ernest was one person who did not relent on his checkups. Every year, he went for his checkup twice, once in January and another around July. He was even the one advising me to regularly get checked to prevent kidney diseases and stroke, which were due to pressure. Hence, he advised that we get checked every six months. He went for checkups where I went, to UGMC. He did not joke with his health. While returning from our trip to Takoradi, he never complained of having pains,” the former DCE told the interviewer.
