Monument in honour of Major Mahama symbol to end mob justice: Minister

Major Mahama was killed in a mob attack at Denkyire Obuasi after a false alarm was raised about his identity that he is a thief.

Speaking at the second of the third funeral rites planned for the slain soldier in Bole, Deputy Defense Minister Major Derick Oduro (Rtd) said government will not renege on the promises it made to the family of the late soldier.

“Government will not renege on its promises to the families including the erection of a monument at a yet to be decided place to signify an end to mob injustice. As the president said, never again should we allow this to happen in the country”, he said.
