He was alleged to have departed the march line on Thursday, February 8, 2024, during a health-care rehearsal at the Prison Clinic.
Health authorities at the clinic swiftly referred him to the Koforidua Central Hospital for emergency treatment, but he died on Saturday, February 10.
DSP Ezekiel Korletey, the public relations officer for Koforidua Prisons, verified the death.
“He left the line on Thursday during the rehearsals. He was examined at the prison clinic, they quickly rushed him to the Koforidua Central Hospital when they realised his situation wasn’t stable,” the PRO said.
He added “he was doing well until he passed on Saturday evening. We suspect his Blood Pressure went high. We are yet to get official report on cause of death from the hospital.”
He left behind a wife and two little children.
This year’s National 6th March Parade will be conducted in the Eastern Region.
Both the security services and the schoolchildren have been busy practicing their marching abilities in full swing.
