Ghanaian Deputy Finance Minister John Kumah has died at the age of 45. Kumah was scheduled to contribute to the Budget debate on Thursday and Friday.
However, his health deteriorated during a visit to his constituency, Ejisu, for the Independence anniversary. An ambulance was mobilized to transport him to Accra, where he was pronounced dead.
His remains have been deposited at the 37 Military Hospital in Accra. Kumah left behind a wife, Apostle Mrs. Lilian Kumah, and six children.
After his death, conspiracy theories have emerged, with some people claiming that he was poisoned.
A video of an old woman raising curses on Kumah has surfaced, with the woman accusing him of stealing her land to build a project on it.
