Dr. Anaba’s appointment was supposed to last till 2020 and had the option to re-apply but has been revoked. He was appointed on February 1, 2016 during the tenure of former President John Mahama.

It is unclear why the Public Service Commission and the Ghana Health Service (GHS) Council terminated his appointment.

His appointment was characterised by a series of protests at Ridge after some aggrieved workers of the hospital objected to his selection, citing incompetence and a breach in the selection process.

The staff of the hospital described Dr Anaba as lazy, and rather want Dr Emmanuel Srofenyo, popularly known as Srof, a consultant obstetrician/gynaecologist as the head of the hospital.

Posters of the aggrieved workers read "No Srof No Medical Director, Srof, A Faithful And Committed Servant Of Ridge, Srof Nie, Good Governance, Team Work And Innovation Nie! No Srof As Medical Director, No Work."
