The Korle Bu Teaching Hospital have disclosed their efforts to reach Ghanaian musician Belinda Ekuah Amoah, popularly known as Mzbel, over her allegation have been futile.
In a news card shared by GHOne TV, Korle Bu Teaching Hospital was quoted to have said, “All attempts to reach Mzbel to investigate her allegation regarding ‘No BedSyndrome ‘, which reportedly led to the death of her sister, remain futile”.
It will be recalled that Mzbel, who some days ago broke down in tears in a viral video following the death of her sister due to the no-bed syndrome.
In a viral video shared on social media, Mzbel alleged that her sister died at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital after the facility reportedly had no available bed for her.
According to Mzbel, the lack of a bed contributed to her sister’s death, questioning the government and John Dramani Mahama over the persistent reports of bed shortages at the hospital.
Speaking in a self-recorded viral video, Mzbel stated, “We cannot blame the nurses and the doctors; we must blame the government. Since I was a child, I’ve always heard reports that there were no beds available at Korle Bu. So all the presidents that have come and gone, didn’t you hear there were no beds at Korle Bu? Every day when someone dies, there is no bed in Korle Bu”.
If it was during an election, they would have provided beds for people to sleep on to go and vote. When will there be beds at Korle Bu? If you are ill and you don’t have money and go to Korle Bu, you will die because there is no bed there; the number of patients there is more than the number of beds”.
She added, “It is your job to provide beds; it is not about making promises. Every day people are being placed on the floor with no medication, then they pass on”.
What is the problem at Korle Bu? People are just dying there; as for death, everyone will die, but if it is not your time and because there is no bed for you to be treated. When will there be enough beds at Korle Bu”.
Also, Mzbel, has responded to the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital following its request for clarification over her claims,
Mzbel had alleged that delays in admitting her late sister due to a lack of available beds contributed to her sister’s death.
According to Mzbel, her sister was first taken to Ussher Clinic in Accra, Jamestown, where she received treatment before being referred to Korle Bu for further emergency care.
She disclosed that her family was informed upon arrival at Korle Bu that there were no available beds.
Mzbel is quoted as saying, “She remained on the floor from the afternoon we arrived until the following afternoon, when she sadly passed away,” Mzbel said.
She revealed that her decision to speak publicly was not intended to attack the hospital but to draw attention to what she described as a painful reality many Ghanaian families continue to face when seeking emergency healthcare.
“My intention has never been to attack any institution or damage anyone’s reputation. I spoke because I lost my sister under circumstances that no family should ever have to endure,” she stated.
Mzbel asserted that her concern extends beyond her sister’s case, acknowledging that similar experiences have been shared with her by other Ghanaians.
“This is bigger than sister Laila,” she said
