President John Mahama has paid glowing tribute to the eight victims of Wednesday’s fatal military helicopter crash, describing them as patriots who gave their lives in service to the nation.
Addressing the nation from the Jubilee House on Thursday, August 7, President Mahama said the late officials and military personnel “dedicated their lives to Ghana’s progress”.
He stated that their final moments “were spent in service,” underscoring their unwavering commitment to the country.
“We have lost some of our nation’s brightest minds,” the president said.
“This is a moment of shared heartbreak, a time to reflect on the preciousness of life, the sacrifices of public service, and our gratitude for those who dedicate themselves to the well-being of Ghana.”
President Mahama recalled the distinguished careers of the victims.
“Squadron Leader Anala, Flying Officer Ampadu, and Sergeant Addo were dedicated members of our Air Force, embodying the best of their profession,” he said.
“Alhaji Muniru Mohammed Limuna was a humble yet effective public servant. Samuel Sarpong was a respected statesman, and Mr. Samuel Aboagye was a promising leader.
“Dr. Omane Boamah was a brilliant and dedicated leader. Alhaji Dr. Murtala Mohammed was a passionate voice for his constituents and a champion for environmental stewardship. These gallant men each served Ghana with distinction,” President Mahama added.
