John Kumah's one-week observation slated for March 28 - Family

The family of the late Ejisu Member of Parliament and Deputy Finance Minister, Dr John Ampontuah Kumah, has formally notified Parliament of his unfortunate passing.

During a courtesy visit to the House on Tuesday, March 19, 2024, the family conveyed the news of Dr Kumah's demise to the legislature through the Speaker of Parliament, Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin.

A social media post on the official Parliament handle confirmed the visit, stating, "Family of the late MP for Ejisu and Deputy Minister of Finance, Hon. John Kumah, were in Parliament today to officially inform the Rt. Hon. Speaker of the demise of the former MP.

"They were received by the First Deputy Speaker, Hon. Joseph Osei-Owusu, and leadership of the House."

Representing Mr Bagbin and Parliament, the First Deputy Speaker and Bekwai MP, Joseph Osei-Owusu, expressed condolences to the bereaved family.

The family, however, informed the House that the late MP's one-week observation will be observed on March 28, 2024.
