Running mate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Prof Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang, has commiserated with the family of 10-year-old Ishmael Abdallah who was gruesomely murdered at Kasoa.
The former Education Minister, during her visit, sent consolation messages to the family coupled with prayers for the boy’s soul to rest in peace.
“May Allah grant solace and strength to the bereaved family particularly in this holy month of Ramadan,” she prayed.
To her, the act is a despicable episode and demands national soul-searching and an honest enquiry into the direction of our country.
“Even as a mother and grandmother, I do not pretend to fully comprehend what my fellow mother is going through at this moment save to offer prayers and words of sincere sympathy,” she mourned.
On behalf of former President John Dramani Mahama and the NDC, she donated a token of GHS10,000.00 to the family.
She was accompanied by some party bigwigs including the Member of Parliament for North Tongu, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa.
