Korle Bu to Conduct Mass Burial for 320 Unclaimed Bodies

The Korle Bu Teaching Hospital has announced plans to conduct a mass burial for 320 unclaimed, unknown, and unidentified bodies.
This will take place on January 18, 2026, and was announced in a statement issued on December 24, 2025.
This is in response to the currently congested and overstretched capacity of the mortuary.
It therefore encouraged relatives, next of kin, or any persons with an interest in any of the bodies to contact the Management of KBTH within twenty-one (21) days of this notice, on or before 18th January 2026, to make the necessary arrangements.
“All bodies remaining unclaimed after the deadline will be buried in accordance with approved procedures and relevant regulations.”
The exercise will be carried out in collaboration with the Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA).
