“We extend heartfelt condolences to His Excellency the President, the Government, bereaved families, and the entire nation.

“In this painful moment, we mourn as a people, but not as those without hope. For even in the valley of the shadow of death, we are assured of God’s abiding presence. We extend our deepest sympathies to the bereaved families, offering prayers that the Lord, who is close to the broken-hearted, will uphold them with His peace.”
“May this loss unite us in national solidarity and reflection, as we entrust the souls of the departed into the eternal rest of our Lord. Amen.”
The statement, signed by Most Rev. Prof. J. Kwabena Asamoah-Gyadu, reflects the Church’s call for national unity and comfort in faith during this period of grief.
The Presiding Bishop emphasized the hope found in God even amidst deep national loss, urging Ghanaians to remain united and prayerful.
