A moment of apprehension and unease unfolded when the Aide De Camp (ADC) assigned to guard President Akufo-Addo during his State of the Nation Address (SONA) suddenly slumped and collapsed while on duty.
His medical emergency briefly interrupted the proceedings and the address, as the medical response team in and security personnel hurried to his side to provide assistance.
Colonel Isaac Amponsah later regained consciousness and was seen being escorted out of the chamber.
In February 2023, Colonel Amponsah replaced Major-General Bismark Onwona, who was reassigned to the Army Headquarters as Commandant of the Training and Doctrine Command at the Ghana Armed Forces.
