During a somber vigil, Debrah expressed the collective grief, saying, “Over three days, we have asked the question in self-doubt, we have questioned our faith and dared to ask, why them, why now and why this way? Our hearts continue to bleed.”
He emphasized the spirit of unity and resilience that has defined the Ghana’s response to the tragedy.
Felix Kwakye Ofosu, Minister for Government Communications, paid tribute to the deceased, urging Ghanaians to draw inspiration from their legacies.
“Let us never forget the price they paid in the line of duty, and may their legacy inspire us to uphold the ideals of service,” he said, calling on citizens to work harder for the country’s development.
The victims included Defence Minister Dr. Edward Omane Boamah, Minister for Environment Murtala Mohammed, former Ashanti Regional Minister Samuel Sarpong, Muniru Mohammed (Acting Deputy National Security Coordinator), and Samuel Aboagye, a former Member of Parliament.
