Former First Lady Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings has paid tribute to the eight public officials who died in last week’s military helicopter crash by laying a wreath at the Ceremonial Garden of Jubilee House.
According to a statement from the Office of former President Jerry John Rawlings, the ceremony took place on Tuesday, August 12. Mrs. Agyeman-Rawlings was accompanied by her son, Kimathi Agyeman-Rawlings, and her Special Aide and Administrative Manager, Mildred Annan Bentil.
Last week, she conveyed her condolences to the bereaved families, the government, and the people of Ghana over the tragic loss on Wednesday, August 6, 2025.
“Their passing is a great loss to the nation and, indeed, to the international community, many of whom may have crossed paths with some of the departed,” she said.
She also expressed her sympathies to the officers and personnel of the Ghana Armed Forces, acknowledging the pain of losing colleagues who died in service to the nation.
