The Minister for Health, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, is expected to appear before Parliament on Tuesday, 1st July 2025, to provide an update on the COVID-19 situation in Ghana, following renewed concerns over rising cases, particularly at the University of Ghana.

The scheduled appearance comes after calls from the Minority in Parliament demanding urgent action and clarity from government regarding the resurgence of the virus.

Reports of a spike in infections on the University of Ghana campus have already led to the suspension of social events, with health authorities describing the move as a precautionary step to curb further spread.

Raising the issue on the floor of Parliament on Friday, 27th June, Minority Chief Whip Frank Annoh-Dompreh described the development as alarming, warning that the government’s slow response and silence risk fuelling public panic.

“Mr. Speaker, by summoning the Minister of Health to Parliament, the Minority aims to ensure that the government takes proactive measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and protect public health,” he stated

His concerns were echoed by Nalerigu/Gambaga MP, Nurudeen Muhammed Mumuni, who stressed the need for transparency. “We need the Health Minister to address the nation and clarify whether COVID-19 is back,” he said.

In a statement dated 23rd June, the Health Services Directorate of the University of Ghana confirmed a resurgence of COVID-19 cases on campus, with both suspected and confirmed infections reported within the university community.

Authorities have urged strict compliance with safety protocols, including the proper use of face masks, regular handwashing, and social distancing, particularly in enclosed or crowded spaces.

The university has also reactivated its COVID-19 screening and triage protocols at all campus health facilities to help contain the outbreak.

Meanwhile, the Ghana Health Service (GHS) has reminded the public that COVID-19 remains a threat despite the World Health Organization’s declaration in 2023 ending the global emergency. The GHS has called for continued vigilance to avoid a broader health crisis.
