Omane Boamah stood by me through defining moments of my political journey – Mahama

Speaking during the unveiling of a cenotaph in memory of the late Dr Omane Boamah at the Ministry of Defence, President Mahama reflected on the personal bond they shared, saying the former Minister for Defence stood firmly by him during some of the most defining moments of his political career.

President John Dramani Mahama has paid tribute to the late Dr Edward Kofi Omane Boamah, describing him as more than a colleague in government, but a trusted friend, loyal adviser and younger brother whose unwavering support remained constant throughout his political journey.

The unveiling of the cenotaph followed a National Interfaith Memorial Service, which was held earlier in the day at the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA), where political leaders, members of the Ghana Armed Forces, religious leaders, diplomats, family members and friends gathered to celebrate the life and service of the late statesman.
