The Forecourt of the State House in Accra is being transformed into a place of solemn remembrance as preparations near completion for an "Evening of Reflections and Memorial" in honour of the eight Ghanaians who died in the tragic military helicopter crash in Obuasi, Ashanti Region.
In a video shared by 1957 News, the forecourt appeared ready to host the event, with black canopies mounted, chairs neatly arranged, and police barricades set up to control the crowd.
The atmosphere is being prepared for a night dedicated to remembering the lives lost in service to the nation.
The Government of Ghana declared three days of national mourning, beginning on August 7, 2025, to pay tribute to the victims.
