A leading member of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) , Dr. Edward Omane Boamah has joined scores of Ghanaians mourning the saddened departure of the late former Deputy Minister of Finance and Ejisu Member of Parliament (MP), John Kumah.
According to the Dr. Edward Omane Boamah, a former Minister of Communications under John Mahama administration, he still disbelief the death of the young politician.
Dr. Edward Omane Boamah writes:
Over the past 24 hours, I’ve journeyed through the different stages of Denial, Anger, Bargain, Grief and Acceptance and I still oscillate in between these feelings because of the news that Hon. Dr. John Kumah is no more.
It was befitting that Chairman Asiedu Nketiah led the NDC National Executive Committee (NEC) to observe a moment of silence to pray for John Kumah yesterday.
He was a young (45yrs) and promising politician, indeed one of the front-runners in the NPP’s 2024 Running Mate race.
News of John Kumah’s demise shocked me and reminded me of the sudden death of Hon. Kwadwo Baah Wiredu, also an affable NPP MP who served at the same Ministry, Finance.
It has been over a decade since I met John Kumah physically or spoke to him on phone. Notwithstanding this distance, I liked John. He was a good guy.
It has also been over two decades since John and Benard Mornah and I contested for NUGS President… and we became friends afterwards…
As I wish John a peaceful rest in the Lord, the news about poisoning being a possible cause of his death is depressing.
His immediate family can opt for thorough toxicological autopsy to settle their doubts, suspicions and apprehensions.
I condole with his wife, children and entire family.
Rest in perfect peace Hon. Dr. John Kumah.
