A military helicopter went down in Ghana on Wednesday August 6, resulting in the deaths of all eight people on board, which included Defense Minister Edward Omane Boamah and Environment Minister Ibrahim Murtala Muhammed.
The helicopter departed from Accra en route to the Obuasi gold-mining region and lost contact before its wreckage was in the Ashanti region.
An investigation into the causes of the crash is currently underway. This event is regarded as a national tragedy, with the public in mourning at the ministers’ homes and party offices.
This incident is one of the most severe air disasters in Ghana in more than ten years.
