The outspoken activist went viral on social media on Sunday, August 17, following a heated confrontation with emergency ward nurses at the Greater Accra Regional Hospital, popularly known as Ridge Hospital.
He recorded himself angrily blasting nurses at the facility after they failed to promptly attend to a critically ill patient he had brought to the facility.
Ralph accused one nurse of claiming that he cannot pressure them to do their jobs, which triggered him to go on a lengthy rant about the lack of professionalism among Ghanaian health workers.
One nurse, Rejoice Bortei, later accused Ralph St Williams of assaulting her, and Ridge Hospital shared CCTV footage to back up her claim.
Bortei said in an interview that she suffered a dislocated shoulder and other severe injuries and sued St Williams for assault and defamation.
