Meanwhile, while many may have forgotten about the old ¢100 banknote, much less the lady whose image was embossed on the legal tender, YEN.com.gh, remembers trailblazer Docia Angelina Naki Kisseih, Ghana’s first Chief Nursing Officer.
Docia Angelina Naki Kisseih made history when she became the first Ghanaian Chief Nursing Officer after British colonial rule ended. Born on August 13, 1919, in Odumase, Naki Kisseih, would rise to become a prominent health leader following her appointment in 1961 as Chief Nursing Officer after Ghana attained independence from the old British colonial system.
