The President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo has promoted the late Captain Adams Mahama posthumously to the Rank of Major with effect from 29th May 2017, the day Major Adams Mahama was murdered.
The President also announced a 500,000.00 Ghana Cedis Memorial trust fund to support the Widow and her Children. The board of trustees for the fund will be chaired by the Minister for Defence, Dominic Nitiwul.
He has also promised that a National Monument will be built and named after Major Maxwell Adams Mahama to serve as a memorial in his honour.
The President disclosed all this when he paid a visit to the wife and family of the late Major Mahama to console them.
The President also says he has issued express instructions to the Interior Minister to ensure that all those who were involved with the murder of Major Adams Mahama will be tried and brought to justice.
He asked the Widow to take consolation in the fact that she married a hero and that the whole country stands by her and her children. The President also ordered that Major Maxwell Adams Mahama be given a State Burial.

Gestapo, this is not the norm! Get educated about military RULES OF DISENGAGEMENT!!!
IT IS ALREADY A NORM THAT WHEN ANY MILITARY/OR ANY SECURITY SERVICE PERSON DIES, HE/SHE IS GIVEN THE NEXT RANK AHEAD OF THE PERSON. SO PLEASE DONT SAY THE PRESIDENT HAS PROMOTED HIM TO THE RANK OF MAJOR.
Good job President Nana Addo Danquah. Also the disbursement of money to the widow should be free of all bottlenecks. Further, I think this should serve the introduction of special bank visa cards to such victims to enable them to receive their funds asap. RIP Major Mahama!!!
His promotion takes effect on 29th May 2017 so it's right to address him Major Maxwell Mahama. Etse so who is Woabon dodo. You are the one who is woabon paaa.
