The Minister for Health, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, has announced that the report of the committee investigating the circumstances surrounding the death of Engineer Charles Amissah will soon be made public.

The 29-year-old, who worked with Promasidor Ghana Limited, died in a hit-and-run accident at the Circle Overpass in Accra on February 6, 2026.

He was allegedly denied admission at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, Ridge Hospital, and the Police Hospital before eventually succumbing to his injuries.

In response, the Ministry of Health constituted a three-member high-level investigative committee to examine the circumstances surrounding the incident.

Speaking at the Government Accountability Series on Monday, April 13, Mr Akandoh said the committee, chaired by Professor Agyeman Badu Akosa, has nearly completed its work, with the final report expected to be released soon.

He added that government will not hesitate to fully implement the recommendations once the report is published.

“The committee was set up and is chaired by Professor Agyeman Badu Akosa. I have been hinted that the report is almost ready. So very soon, I will make the findings and the report public. And we will not hesitate—I know some people will not be happy, but I’ll say it—we will not hesitate to implement the recommendations to the letter,” he said.
