The story of Governor J.
M.
Gomez and how he tragically lost his life out of excitement that his wife, who he had not seen for a very long time, was approaching the beach, was captured in a blog post by therealetsey.wordpress.com on August 9, 2015.
According to the accounts the blogger received from the caretaker of the Fort Saint Anthony at Axim, the largest in Ghana, John Ackah, Gomez's excitement was paradoxically shortened when he tripped on the staircase and tumbled to his death.
