President John Dramani Mahama has urged Ghanaians to put aside their political differences and unite in mourning following the tragic military helicopter crash that claimed eight lives on Wednesday, August 6, in the Adansi Akrofuom District of the Ashanti Region.
In his first national address since the incident, President Mahama emphasized the need for compassion, solidarity, and collective healing, cautioning against politicising the tragedy.
The President posited that there was no need for division, speculation, or political point-scoring.
The President reminded the nation that their shared humanity and sorrow transcend political affiliations.
“In this moment of national grief, let us remember that we are, above all, Ghanaians – united not just by nationality but by shared hope, shared humanity, and now, shared sorrow. Let us set aside our differences and offer our collective compassion to the bereaved families.
This is not a time for division, speculation, or political point-scoring. It is a time for strength, for empathy, and for the enduring Ghanaian spirit that still stands tall when all else fails. Let our words be of comfort, our actions be of kindness, and our unity be the tribute we offer to those whose lives have been lost.”
