Yendi (N/R), April 29, GNA – Dr. Sylvester Anemana, Northern Regional Director of Health Services, told a gathering of 500 mothers, nurses, students and Red Cross personnel on Friday that poor breastfeeding practices are the cause of high infant morbidity and mortality.
Dr. Anemana, who was launching this year’s breastfeeding campaign in the Region at Yendi, noted that some of the harmful infant feeding practices in the Region include giving herbal concoctions and even pito to babies.

He said the Ministry of Health decided to participate in the global baby-friendly hospital initiative started in 1991 because of poor breastfeeding in Ghana.
