Parliament's Public Accounts Committee (PAC) has summoned former Minister of Health, Dr. Bernard Okoe-Boye, to appear before it over the payment of GH¢20 million in mobilisation funds for a Parliamentary Service Hospital project that has yet to commence.

The summons was issued by the Ranking Member of the Committee, Samuel Atta Mills, who also called for the former Administrator of the District Assemblies Common Fund (DACF) and the accountant involved in the transaction to testify before the Committee.

The decision follows revelations contained in the Auditor-General's report presented to the PAC on April 1, 2026, which indicated that the amount was paid despite no physical work having been carried out on the project.

According to the findings, the payment was made on December 31, 2024, during the administration of former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

The report further noted that Dr. Okoe-Boye signed the contract for the hospital project during his tenure as Health Minister.

Appearing before the Committee on Wednesday, the current DACF Administrator, Michael Yamson, attributed the delay in execution to a change in the project's location—from the parliamentary precincts to the premises of National Security. However, the explanation did not satisfy members of the Committee, with Mr. Atta Mills insisting on further accountability.

"Hon. Okoe-Boye will also have to appear and let us know. The company that took the money should also appear. Because GH¢20 million—what time are they going to build the hospital?" he questioned.

The Committee is expected to continue its inquiries as it seeks to establish the circumstances surrounding the payment and ensure accountability for the unexecuted project.
