Edem Agbana on Disclosure of Public Officials' Health

Eric Edem Agbana, the Member of Parliament for Ketu North, has voiced his disagreement with calls for the disclosure of the medical conditions of government officials. He believes that such information should only be revealed if it directly impacts their capacity to perform their official duties.

Agbana emphasized that while transparency in governance is crucial, a clear line must be drawn between private and public affairs. He stated, "I do not subscribe to the proposition that the health conditions of government officials should automatically be made public. Unless it has a direct impact on the discharge of their duties, their medical status should remain a private matter."

Speaking on Metro TV’s Good Morning Ghana on May 23, 2025, Agbana highlighted the importance of public officials prioritizing their personal health to ensure they can effectively serve the people of Ghana. "You must be in good health to deliver on your mandate. That is why officials should take their health seriously," he added.

Agbana also advocated for substantial investments in Ghana’s healthcare system, urging authorities to upgrade health facilities to better serve Ghanaians. "Our citizens deserve quality healthcare, and we must ensure our facilities meet high standards," he said.
