President has asked Ghanaians to foster peace while being reminded about the fragile nature of life.
President Mahama, who was addressing mourners at the interfaith and interdenominational state funeral held for the 8 victims of the August 6 helicopter crash, described the tragic incident as one no reason can be made out of. "I'm sure that, individually and collectively, our nation will continue to mourn as we find ways to hold tightly to the memories of these men and to honor their legacies.
There is no making sense of what happened.
Despite whatever technical reasons or official explanations the investigation will yield, a loss of this magnitude, and in this manner, will never make sense to the grieving heart. "What we can do, each of us in our own way, as we try to come to terms with this tragic loss, is to move in the direction of peace within our communities and families, having been reminded of how fragile life can be," President Mahama said.
