Bawumia consoles 'weeping’ Mahama

The loss of Major Maxwell Adam Mahama according to close sources remains a sore point in the life of former President John Dramani Mahama.

Though they belong to different political parties, it is not an indication they are enemies but only vary in ideologies which is why they showcased exemplary leadership last Friday.

Former President John Dramani Mahama on Friday June 9, 2017 showed signs he was grief-stricken following the gruesome murder of his nephew while at the requiem service held for him at the forecourt of the State House.

Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia was seen consoling the former president who behind the dark sunglasses he was wearing, occasionally seen wiping tears following the sad incident.

It was a sad moment for him and the entire family who are yet to come to terms with the reality that Friday was indeed the last moments both would share with the late Major Maxwell Adam Mahama who died in line of duty.

As the pallbearers lowered the casket into the grave, former President John Dramani Mahama literally broke down judging from the looks on his face.

There are still conflicting accounts as to circumstances that led to the death of Major Maxwell Adam Mahama who was the platoon Commander at Denkyira-Boase in the Upper Denkyira West District of the Central Region.

Whereas military command and police investigators claim he was going on jogging and stopped to buy snails from the woman who saw a sidearm on him and snitched the assemblyman William Baah who then mobilized angry residents to lynch him, another account claimed he was invited to a meeting with a prior motive of killing him.

51 suspects have so far been arrested in connection with the incident with the latest being 7 who were on Friday remanded by an Accra Central District Court including; Akwasi Baah, Solomon Sackey, Kwame Agyei, Joseph Appiah Kubi (aka Kum Dede), Akosua Takyiwaa (aka Maabono), Esther Dauda (aka Asha) and Michael Kumah (aka Kojo Anim) to reappear on June 21, 2017
