The Adele Traditional Council in the Oti Region has held a ceremonial libation to honour the victims of the recent helicopter crash and to pray for the prevention of such tragedies in the future.
In a heartfelt statement, Nana Amanfo Monfankye of Dadiase expressed profound shock and sorrow upon learning of the tragedy involving the Ghana Armed Forces’ Z9 helicopter, which was en route to Obuasi.
This tragic incident resulted in the untimely deaths of eight courageous individuals who were serving their country.
The Council described the event as having “plunged the country into total darkness and national mourning”, paying tribute to the fallen ministers, government officials, and service personnel, whose voices will now remain silent forever.
They assured President John Dramani Mahama and the bereaved families of their prayers for God Almighty and Allah’s grace, mercy, and comfort during this challenging time.
Nana Monfankye also urged Ghanaians to use this moment of grief to remain united and to support the government in combating the illegal mining menace.
Ohema Nsifor Okolor emphasised the importance of peace among all ethnic groups in Nkwanta to foster unity and promote development.
She pointed out that the municipality is gradually losing its status as a developing area, leading to significant hardships for both women and men in the community.
While noting the significant void left by the deceased, the Council affirmed that the legacy of these fallen heroes will forever be remembered.
“May the good Lord and Allah comfort you and all Ghanaians,” the statement concluded.
