Pope Francis has received praise from President John Dramani Mahama, who stated that “generations to come will be inspired by his legacy of compassion, humility, and dedication to social justice.”
The remark was posted on social media by President Mahama.
The world woke up to the sad news of Pope Francis’ passing. On behalf of my family and the people of Ghana, I extend heartfelt condolences to the Roman Catholic Church and all Catholic faithful in Ghana during this time of profound grief.
I fondly remember visiting the Vatican with my wife, Lordina, where we had the distinct honour of meeting Pope Francis. His legacy of compassion, humility, and commitment to social justice will continue to inspire generations.
His leadership and advocacy for the poor and marginalised resonate deeply. May his soul rest in perfect peace.
