Late Deputy Finance Minister and Ejisu MP, Dr. John Kumah‘s mother sought closure through an autopsy to ascertain the true cause of his demise.
Allegations of poisoning have circulated since the legislator’s sudden illness and subsequent passing on Thursday, March 7, 2024.
Despite widespread suspicions, no confirmation from experts, family, or associates has been provided regarding the alleged poisoning.
Speaking tearfully in an interview with JoyNews on March 8, the grieving mother expressed the profound pain the family is enduring and insisted on a thorough autopsy to verify the poisoning rumors.
“I don’t know how my son died, they killed him because of position, he is a generous human being, my son’s death needs to be investigated,“ Late John Kumah’s mother stated.
Questioning why anyone would wish such an end for her son, the distraught mother lamented the destruction of the family’s backbone.
She emphasised the need for clarity surrounding Dr. Kumah’s death, asserting that the life of a determined young parliamentarian with a promising future has been prematurely lost.
Ejisu residents also joined in mourning, praising the late MP for his remarkable impact on the constituency during his less-than-four-year service.
They highlighted his personal attention to individuals, respect for everyone, and outstanding contributions, making it seem as though he had been serving for many more years.
Residents celebrated his kindness and benevolence, describing how he treated everyone as if they were family.
Dr. John Kumah, who passed away at the age of 45 after a brief illness, leaves behind a legacy as a devoted family man survived by his wife, Apostle Mrs. Lilian Kumah, and six children.
Notably, he served as the inaugural Chief Executive Officer for the National Entrepreneurship and Innovation Programme (NEIP).
