Nigeria’s former President, Goodluck Jonathan, commiserated with Gahna’s President John Mahama, following a military helicopter crash that claimed the lives of two cabinet ministers and six others. 


The ministers who lost their lives are Edward Omane Boamah, Minister of Defence, and Ibrahim Murtala Mohammed, Minister of Environment.


Describing the deceased as committed public servants who gave their lives in service to their country, he paid tribute to their patriotism and sacrifices, noting that their passing leaves a painful void in the hearts of many, praying that their legacy continues to inspire future generations of Ghanaian leaders.


Jonathan also prayed that God grants President Mahama, the affected families, and the people of Ghana the strength and fortitude to bear the irreparable loss, while wishing that the souls of the departed rest in perfect peace.
