The management of The Bank Hospital has strongly denied allegations that it breached the privacy and confidentiality of the late Ghanaian music legend, Charles Kwadwo Fosu, popularly known as Daddy Lumba, who passed away at the facility on July 26, 2025.

In an official statement, the hospital described the circulating claims—allegedly made by social media personality Afia Schwarzenegger (Valentina Nana Agyeiwaa)—as false, misleading, and defamatory.

“The Bank Hospital is an internationally accredited institution, staffed by committed and professional healthcare workers. We remain dedicated to upholding the highest standards of care and confidentiality for every patient,” the statement affirmed.

The hospital stressed that Daddy Lumba received professional treatment in line with global medical standards and that his family was fully engaged in every step of his care—from admission until his passing.

“Transparency and patient-centred care are at the heart of what we do. Mr. Fosu’s family was involved throughout the process,” the management reiterated.

In addressing concerns, the hospital also noted that it routinely conducts internal reviews to improve services and understand patient outcomes. It assured that any findings will be communicated respectfully and directly to the family.

“Internal procedures are underway, and relevant information will be shared with the family in accordance with ethical medical practices and confidentiality policies,” the statement added.

The Bank Hospital concluded by cautioning the public against spreading unverified health information and encouraged reliance on credible sources before making such claims public.

Counsellor D Y Donkoh has issued a public apology to Ghanaian music star Shatta Wale after sharing a prophecy that reportedly left the artist “visibly shaken and traumatised.”

In a statement dated July 27, 2025, Donkoh admitted the prophecy—shared on social media—sparked widespread concern and was never meant to cause fear.

He expressed regret and pledged to be more cautious when sharing future revelations.
