A poignant video circulating on social media captures the heart-wrenching moment when the body of the late Dr. John Kumah was transferred from a helicopter to a waiting car, ahead of his funeral today.
The solemn scene, marked by the sounds of mourning and tears from those present, has deeply moved viewers across the nation.
Dr. John Kumah, a respected Deputy Minister for Finance and New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament for the Ejisu Constituency in the Ashanti Region, passed away recently.
His funeral has drawn significant attention and emotional outpouring. The video, recorded yesterday, shows the helicopter landing with precision, carrying Kumah’s coffin. As the rotor blades slowly came to a stop, solemn-faced attendants carefully moved the coffin from the helicopter to a waiting vehicle designated for the final journey.
In the background, the cries and wails of grieving family members and friends could be heard, adding to the somber atmosphere. The profound sense of loss was palpable, reflecting Kumah’s impact on those who knew him.
After his death, Apostle Lilian Kumah, the widow of the late Dr. John Kumah, publicly refuted rumors circulating about her husband’s death. Contrary to claims that he died from food poisoning, she clarified that her late husband had been diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a blood-related disease, in August 2023. This diagnosis was made during a medical check-up in Germany, which she had accompanied him to.
The video has garnered widespread attention online, with many expressing their condolences and sharing their memories of Kumah.
Today’s funeral is expected to be attended by a large number of mourners, including prominent figures from the community and beyond. The ceremony will serve as an opportunity for friends, family, and colleagues to pay their final respects and celebrate the life and legacy of Dr. John Kumah.
