President John Mills has debunked claims he went to the United States to seek medical treatment.

He has been out for close to a week in what government spokespersons say is part of a short leave.

Some critics say he is out to seek medical treatment.

But on his arrival at the Kotoka International Airport Monday morning, he told news men and high powered delegation including the vice president, that he has absolute faith in the doctors in Ghana and did not seek medical treatment in the US.

Joy FM's correspondent Seth Kwame Boateng who was present at airport said the president took time to respond to some pertinent issues that came up in his absence.

President Mills said he will do nothing to negatively affect the sanctity of the Judiciary.

He also commented on the Kosmos-Exxonmobil controversy which took centre stage in his absence.

President Mills is heading to the Castle but it is not clear if he will resume work today.
