Minister for Communication, Digital Technology, and Innovation, and Member of Parliament for Ningo-Prampram, , has described the late Defence Minister, Dr Edward Omane Boamah, as a man whose devotion to Ghana was unmatched and only surpassed by his deep love for his family.
Delivering an emotional family tribute to the late minister at the Evening of Reflections and Memorials held on Saturday at the Forecourt of the State House, Sam George recalled how Omane Boamah constantly reminded him to prioritise family above the demands of public service. "Omane's love for our country was only surpassed by his deep love for Rita, his dear wife, and Akua, Ama, and Yao, his children and world.
They were everything to him," Sam George said.
He shared intimate memories of conversations in which Dr Omane Boamah would ask about his wife Vera and their children, urging him to spend more time with them. "There's no better home teacher for the kids than you and Vera," he would say, often checking on the children's academic performance.
