The Buem Traditional Council has added a voice to the national tribute for the eight victims of the military helicopter crash, underscoring the tragedy’s impact on communities far beyond the nation’s capital.
In a heartfelt statement, the chiefs and elders of the council in the Oti Region expressed profound sorrow and called on all Ghanaians to honour the victims’ legacy through unity and dedicated service.
The crash, which occurred on August 6, claimed the lives of eight public servants, including two distinguished ministers of state, Edward Omane Boamah and Ibrahim Murtala Muhammed.
The tribute from the Buem Traditional Council highlights the cross-regional grief and the enduring role of traditional leaders in national affairs.
Speaking on behalf of the council, Nana Tettey Brantuo Kpesseh, the Adontehene, offered condolences to the president, the bereaved families, and the entire nation.
He emphasised the significant void left behind by the loss of individuals whose commitment to public service had left a lasting impact.
“Their legacy of service and patriotism will endure,” Nana Brantuo stated, acknowledging the sacrifices made for the nation’s progress.
He urged Ghanaians to recognise the value of life and to commit themselves to promoting peace and contributing to the country’s development.
The statement concluded with a prayer for the victims’ souls to find eternal peace and for their families to be comforted by the support of the Buem community and all Ghanaians, reflecting the deep-seated cultural practice of traditional leaders offering moral and communal support during times of national crisis.
