Ex-President John Dramani Mahama has pledged to take up the responsibility of supporting and nurturing the youngsters left behind by the late Captain Adam Mahama.
Captain Maxwell Mahama who passed away under very sad circumstances left behind a very young wife and two toddlers.
In a tribute message to his nephew, Mr. Mahama said the family will support his wife through this unfortunate incident and safeguard the future of the children.
“As a family, we will do our bit to console our daughter; his wife, and we’ll also do our bit to look after his children and bring them up”, he said.
He described the incident as ‘unacceptable’ and ‘very sad’, and condemned persons involved in the gruesome act. According to him, it was very inappropriate for citizens to subject the very same persons tasked to defend them to such treatment.
“The military is an institution that sacrifices a lot to defend us, and for those who defend us to become the victims of ourselves, for us to inflict this kind of death on them is unacceptable, completely”.
Mr. Mahama expressed his condolences to the widow and the Ghana Armed Forces. He asked government and all security institutions to as a matter of urgency collaboratively work to bring perpetrators of the “dastardly act” to book, this he says will deter others from doing same. He also appealed to all to desist from politicizing the issue and admonished citizens to be disciplined and work towards securing a peaceful country.
‘I believe government and the security agencies will do everything possible to bring the perpetrators of this dastardly act to book. We should find out who did it and properly prosecute them and apply the penalty….it will serve as a deterrent to people who engage in mob justice……..it is my hope that we will use this as a lesson to behave in a manner that is disciplined that allows our country to make the progress that we want it to make and I also appeal that we don’t politicize this’, he said.

If all these are for your 2020 agenda then find more widows wae.
My best of condolence to bereaved family of comrade captain Maxwell Mahama whose untimely demise of great shock to us and the entire nation.May his soul rest in peace. However, am glad fmr Prez John Mahama has also reach out to to the bereaved family. But to me prz. J Mahama could have stop this painful death of his nephew on anti galamesy mission if had then under his auspices as then President of Ghana work hard to root the menace of this galamesy canker but under his watch galamesy became worst .I hate to write this and shifting blame but Maxwell death leave no choice than to blame some of our lazy mentally retarded and coward leaders who watch indiscipline and immoral vices becomes order of the day.Nothing angers me most where the Ghanaian today is nothing worth than a slave in his own country to a foreigner because the Ghanaian has no means of livelihood. Our leaders we the youth are telling you to sit up, at least feel Ghanaians small.To Capt Maxwell RIP and the family shediin.God bless ghana

“As a family, we will do our bit to console our daughter; his wife, and we’ll also do our bit to look after his children and bring them up” When would this hate thing stop. So JDM does't have a voice anymore?
Eeiii, it's true ooh! We read from their Mahama that the murdered soldier (may his soul Rest In Peace) happened to be the only son of the mother, but the father has come out to refute this. What was that about? Still not crediblê in opposition! SMH
JB the short president is wiser and intelligent than yourvst*pid dead go*t riding on a lame horse who was beaten mercilessly and humiliated unprecedented in our country for a sitting president to be rejected by such a huge number. You will stay on opposition till thy kingdom come,in fact he is enjoying his presidency and the international community obiaa s3 3y3. Eeeiii! I never knew power could get some people crazy to the extent that when somebody who doesn't relate to you in anyway past away,you turn to claim he is your relation and lie he is the only child when in fact they are 3 children with the last also being a boy,eeeii ndc lied in power and they are lying in opposition by a whole former president how cheap that is? Anyway this too didn't work for the ndc and everything will go against them until that party is no more.
