Vice President Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang In Good Health, Government Confirms

The government has reassured the public that Vice President Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang is in good health and is currently taking a short medical break in the United Kingdom on her doctors’ advice.

Felix Kwakye Ofosu, the Minister of State in Charge of Government Communications, provided the update during an interview on Channel One TV on Tuesday, April 8. He emphasized that the Vice President’s absence from recent public engagements was due to a routine medical rest period and not a cause for concern.

“The Vice President is in good health and is following her doctors’ recommendation to take a brief rest. She is expected to return to her official duties shortly,” Kwakye Ofosu stated. “At the moment, she is in the UK recuperating.”

His remarks align with earlier statements by Foreign Affairs Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa, who also dismissed circulating rumors regarding the Vice President’s health, confirming that she was well but adhering to medical advice to rest.

Prof. Opoku-Agyemang, Ghana’s first female Vice President following the 2024 elections, has been absent from some recent official functions, prompting speculation on social media. However, government officials have consistently maintained that her temporary absence is part of a planned medical break and not indicative of any serious health issues.

The government has urged the public to disregard unfounded rumors and respect the Vice President’s privacy during this period. Further updates on her return to official duties will be communicated in due course.
