Popular Ghanaian musician Mzbel has been left heartbroken following the death of her elder sister, Leila, whom she says died after allegedly being unable to secure immediate admission at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital.
In an emotional video shared on Sunday, July 5, 2026, the “16 Years” hitmaker, dressed in black with a matching headwrap, struggled to hold back tears as she recounted the painful loss.
The visibly distraught singer repeatedly broke down while attempting to explain the circumstances surrounding her sister’s passing.
According to Mzbel, her 46-year-old sister was rushed to Korle Bu Teaching Hospital in urgent need of medical attention. However, she claimed the family was informed that there were no available beds for admission.
Mzbel believes the delay in receiving treatment contributed to her sister’s death.
The musician’s emotional account has since gone viral on social media, drawing widespread sympathy from Ghanaians, many of whom offered condolences and shared their own experiences with challenges in the country’s healthcare system.
As of the time of publication, Korle Bu Teaching Hospital has not publicly responded to Mzbel’s claims regarding the alleged lack of available beds or the circumstances surrounding the incident.
The singer has not disclosed further details about her sister’s medical condition or funeral arrangements.
