Why are some students from Ukraine being rejected in Ghana?

15 min • 10 oktober 2022

In September the Ghana Medical and Dental Council (GMDC) told students who had been studying in Ukraine that their studies were at risk of being rejected. In the letter, the body said any medical and dental degrees from Ukraine from 2022 will “not be honoured forthwith by the Medical and Dental Council, Ghana, until when normal academic activities resume”. This sent waves among the hundreds of students who had been in Ukraine and who had stopped their normal schooling because of the Russian invasion. One of them is Nana Agyemang, whom we first spoke to in March on the day he landed back home in Ghana after fleeing the war. Seven months on, his and other students’ futures are in limbo as the GMDC reassesses their papers for possible reintegration into the Ghanaian system. Alan Kasujja has been speaking to Nana, his father Major Dr Ebenezer Kwakye Agyemang to hear how they feel about this decision. He’s also been hearing from Ghana Medical and Dental Council registrar, Dr Divine Banyubala to find out how they came to that decision.
