A torrential rainstorm on Saturday, December 13, brought proceedings to an abrupt halt during the final funeral rites of the late Dr Omane Boamah, a former Defence Minister, months after his death in a helicopter crash in May.
The unexpected downpour swept through the funeral grounds in Koforidua in the Eastern Region, forcing mourners, family members and dignitaries to seek shelter as parts of the ceremony were suspended.
Canopies were overwhelmed by the intensity of the rain, while coordinated rituals planned for the day could not proceed as scheduled.
Below is a video capturing the moment the rainstorm interrupted the funeral proceedings.
