Anti-snake Procurement Scandal

Ko'oro ŋmarega 8, 2019 de President of IMANI Center for Policy & Education, a Ghanaian-based Think Tank, yia ti ba yuum wa'am na yele tuuma yima yima n boi se'em doose la Ministry of Health (MoH) puan ti ba ta'am nyɛ Anti-Snake Venom Serum a yuum gulese ŋwana dikɛ basɛ la Facebook puan ti la paɛ Minister. In an attempt to quell the issue, the Minister was heard on a local radio station, Adom FM, refuting the allegations of tender procurement breaches. A follow up response was also sent to IMANI in this regard. These claims by the Minister were later found to be fabricated to cover up dealings with a local company called Pharmanova. The Public Procurement Authority (PPA) ruled against the Ministry and cited various procurement breaches in its decision and requested the Ministry to disqualify the two Pharmanova companies for double bidding amongst other issues and re-evaluate the tender with the remaining tenderers. This scandal was widely covered in the local media and many wondered why the Minister was still at post after these hard facts leveled against him had caused the loss of many lives in the country due to the shortage of this all important emergency drug. Up until March 2020, the Minister has tried various attempts to cancel the said tender, opened up new tenders for Anti-Snake Venom Serum, ignoring the ruling by the PPA and trying to allocate these new tenders again to Pharmanova Ghana Limited.

Condom Scandal

In 2019, the Ministry of Health opened a tender for condoms under bizarre circumstances. Interestingly, no local company who could have had supplied the condoms participated raising questions if the tender was open and widely publicized as required by the Public Procurement Act. It is also interesting to note that the contract again went to Pharmanova Limited.

Pharmanova

A locally registered company owned and managed by Indian nationals has been active in Ghana since 2005 and has increasingly won many tenders especially under the tenure of Kwaku Agyemang Manu as the Minister of Health. No full-blown investigations have been started by the Government of Ghana whilst evidence of fraud and tender manipulation has been widely published by local media.
