Reports filtering through the extreme ends of the country’s borders have it that, aliens have wormed their way into patronizing the National Health Insurance Scheme with great alacrity.

The reports say, at the extreme borders where the aliens filter through border lines, NHIS officials are always mesmerized into thinking and believing that the culprits are Ghanaians.

“This is because most of the aliens bear names almost similar to Ghanaian names, except for the spellings but even that is being addressed speedily to erase any doubts,” an official of the NHIS domiciled westwards to Ghana’s border town at Yawmetwa in the ESSEM/ DEBISO District at the Sefwi area in the Western Region who spoke under the cloak of anonymity, told THE SUN.

Apart from Western border, similar reports have been received from border towns up Ghana, and all along the border posts as far as to the Togolese end of the nation’s eastern borders.

It will be recalled that last December, there was a development to the effect that huge numbers had suddenly swollen up the scheme such that, the possibility of it collapsing loomed rather large on the National Health Service.

But THE SUN has found out that while one man’s poison is yet another man’s meat, the aliens have disregarded the rounds of preaching by the opposition National Democratic Congress Party (NDC), which raised hell about the scheme.

Instead, the aliens are registering all year round as they take advantage of the scheme which is streets ahead of the Pay –as-you-call service in their countries.

One concerned citizen of Yawmetwa, where Ivoriens slip in to register told THE SUN that much as African Unity remained a fine proposal, if not checked the massing influx could affect Ghana negatively, and derail what is obviously a useful health scheme.

Ghana is bordered to the north by Burkina Faso, to the West by the Ivory Coast and to the East by Togo, all of whose nationals have come over in innumerable numbers with identical names such as those of Ghanaians.
