On behalf of the global community of Asomdwee Ntonton Som (Nkabom) followers, I extend our deepest condolences to the victims of the tragic stampede at the El-Wak Stadium, which claimed the lives of six young Ghanaians.

We are especially saddened by the loss of three young women from the Central Region, home to the Temple of Rabbi. These victims were bright, promising individuals who aspired to serve their nation with dedication and purpose.

Our thoughts and prayers remain with the bereaved families, as well as those who are currently receiving medical care.

We also acknowledge with appreciation the visit by the Deputy Minister of Defence to the affected families in Mankessim and Kasoa on Friday, November 14, 2025, during which he announced President John Mahama’s directive to offer an opportunity for a family member of each deceased individual to assume their place. We commend the President for this thoughtful and compassionate initiative, which will undoubtedly bring some comfort to the grieving families.

Lastly, we welcome the new measures introduced by the Minister for the Interior, including the establishment of nearly 15 screening centers across the country for applicants. These steps are timely and essential in preventing such tragedies in the future.
