Zipline Ghana is currently in talks with the government to recover over GH¢174 million in overdue payments for 2025.
A report by citinewsroom.com on November 27, 2025, the company indicates that the medical drone delivery service is under severe financial pressure, raising concerns about its ongoing operations.
The situation has become urgent following reports that Zipline is shutting down three of its operational centers.
The move has alarmed the Minority in Parliament, who, on November 25, 2025, warned that these closures could hinder the delivery of critical medical supplies, including blood and vaccines, to remote communities.
In an interview with Citi News on Wednesday, November 26, 2025, Daniel Kwaku Merki, Zipline’s Country Director, expressed hope that the debt issues would be resolved.
“Ultimately, what we want to achieve is a resolution so that we can deliver our services to all Ghanaians. We are trying to establish a financially sustainable business, and we need a partnership with the government that allows us to support them in their healthcare mandate,” he said.
Nevertheless, the company has warned that without swift intervention, its life-saving services could face further disruptions.
This financial crisis threatens Zipline’s integral role in Ghana’s healthcare system.
