This decision follows findings from a Ghana Health Service (GHS) investigation that uncovered severe lapses by hospital staff, leading to the death of a patient.

The GHS investigation, prompted by the patient's abandonment after being transferred to Ojobi, concluded that the hospital staff involved did not take appropriate action, resulting in the tragic outcome.

In a statement issued on Wednesday, 2nd October, the Ministry of Health disclosed that these findings point to serious misconduct that requires further investigation.

Despite recommendations for internal disciplinary measures against the hospital staff, the Ministry has chosen to seek additional investigations, highlighting the need for accountability due to the gravity of the incident and the resulting loss of life.
