May the soul of this great African stateman Prof
Boahene and the soul of all the faithful departed rest
in perfect peace and light perpertual shine on them.
It is a great lost for Ghana and Africa as a whole.
May his family find solace in the bossom of our lord
and savior Jesus Christ.
Settro, Isaac
