Emotional scenes as from El-Wak stampede victim family house

The family of Priscilla Nyamalor, one of the young victims who lost their lives in the heartbreaking El Wak Stadium stampede, have gathered in Kasoa to perform the customary one-week observance of her passing.

The ceremony, held in line with long-standing Ghanaian tradition, marked a moment for the bereaved family, friends and community members to come together to honour her memory.

In Ghana, a one-week observance is not necessarily conducted exactly seven days after a person’s passing. Instead, it is chosen by the family as a significant moment to publicly acknowledge the loss, receive support, and offer prayers for the departed soul.

For Priscilla’s family, this day served as both a remembrance and a painful reminder of a life cut short.

A circulating video from the solemn gathering showed close relatives and attendees dressed in traditional black and red attire, symbolic colours of mourning, sitting quietly around framed photographs of the late young woman.

Her pictures, surrounded by flowers, stood at the centre of the ceremony, evoking deep emotion among those present.
