Nasiba Bawa, a lady who went viral during the last day of the #OccupyJulorbiHouse demonstration has been sacked by her private employers 48 hours after the protest.
On September 23, the last day of the three-day protest which was aimed at protesting against corruption, economic mismanagement and unemployment, Nasiba Bawa was seen in a viral video charging at the police.
Ms.Bawa was heard saying she is angry people are dying because they cannot afford dialysis, coupled with a poor health system and harsh economic situation.
Speaking with Joy News’ Maxwell Agbagba, Nasiba Bawa said she doesn’t want to draw a correlation between the termination of her contract and the protest knowing there is always a price to pay for speaking out.
Nasiba Bawa said she has worked there for some time and doesn’t know her former employers to be partisan, adding that it is why she doesn’t want to draw the connection.
“I don’t know it to be partisan, I was not told that was the reason, I wasn’t rebuked even though my video went viral, so it is really hard to say, if it is because of it, fair enough, there is always a price to pay for everything,” she said.
“They said when I was sick and took some days off, they hired someone to replace me for three weeks,” she said.
According to her, 48 hours after the demonstration, she was informed that the new person would take over in October.
Regardless, she said this situation will not deter her from fighting for a better health system.
However, a Labour Expect, Senyo Agyabeng has said, Nasiba Bawa’s former employers erred in terminating her contract.

The Tema Regional Police Command has arrested a 32-year-old man for allegedly posing as a soldier and extorting money from unsuspecting members of the public at Ashaiman.
The suspect, identified as Bright Atsu Kudiabor, was arrested by the Ashaiman Police on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, at about 7:00 a.m.
According to the Police, he was arrested at an area known as “I Shall Return”, where he was allegedly parading himself as a soldier and demanding money from people.
The Police said Kudiabor, who is an ex-convict, was initially arrested by personnel of the Ghana National Fire Service in Ashaiman with assistance from other members of the public.
A search conducted on him after he was handed over to the Police reportedly led to the recovery of a set of military camouflage uniform.
The suspect is currently in Police custody and assisting with investigations.
The Tema Regional Police Command said he would be processed for court after investigations are completed.
The Police urged the public to remain vigilant and report anyone who falsely presents themselves as a soldier or a member of another security agency to deceive or extort money from the public.

Volta Regional Minister, James Gunu, says the Volta Region holds enormous agricultural potential and efforts must be geared towards connecting farmers to the needed resources to unlock that potential.
He said focus must be on linking farmers to resources, technology, financing and markets to increase production, create jobs and build sustainable livelihoods.
Hon. Gunu made the remarks at the national launch of the Ghana Tomato Self-Sufficiency Initiative (GHATSI) held at Anloga in the Volta Region on Tuesday, September 15.
The initiative, under the theme “Produce at Home. Feed the Nation. Export the Surplus,” seeks to boost local tomato production, processing and marketing while reducing Ghana’s heavy reliance on imported tomatoes.
The launch was attended by the Minister for Food and Agriculture, Eric Opoku, his Deputy, John Setor Dumelo, Feed Ghana Coordinator, Bright Demordzi, Members of Parliament, traditional leaders, MMDCEs, farmers and other stakeholders.
Mr.Gunu expressed appreciation to the Minister for Food and Agriculture for the support announced for the region, including two excavators, 200 cartons of organic fertiliser, and GH¢200,000 for Ms. Kuatudzo Esther Dela, a tomato farmer and processor from Ziope.
He described the initiative as an important step towards making agriculture a stronger driver of food security, job creation and economic growth in the Volta Region.
