All deaths bring pain to the loved ones of the deceased but some bring more pain than others. Such is the case of the death of a Ghanaian soldier who reportedly died on Friday, September 7.
Lieutenant Felix Tei Sormenah had been on admission at the hospital but while loved ones prayed for his recovery death rather came calling.
But the painful aspect is that Sormenah was reportedly knocked down by a car on September 4. Though the impact was so hard the car’s driving mirror yanked off, the driver failed to stop.
