Here are some photos from the Third-Day Adua for the Late Deputy National Security Coordinator, Alhaji Limuna Muniru. In attendance were President John Mahama, family members, friends, and top government officials.
The high-profile victims who perished in the accident included two cabinet ministers, Dr. Edward Omane Boamah (Minister for Defence) and Ibrahim Murtala Muhammed (Minister for Environment, Science, Technology, and Innovation).

Also among the deceased were Muniru Mohammed, Acting Deputy National Security Coordinator; Samuel Aboagye, a former parliamentary candidate; and Samuel Sarpong, the Vice Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).





The remaining victims were the helicopter's crew members: Squadron Leader Peter Bafemi Anala, Flying Officer Manin Twum-Ampadu, and Sergeant Ernest Addo Mensah.



The group was travelling to Obuasi in the Ashanti Region to attend an event aimed at combating illegal mining, known as galamsey.


The aircraft went off radar, triggering a search-and-rescue operation that ended in tragedy.
