The family of the late former First Lady, Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings, has appealed to the public for privacy as they mourn her passing on Thursday, October 23, 2025.
The family head, Oheneba Lovelace Prempeh, made the appeal while addressing a brief press conference at her Ridge residence in Accra.
Mr. Prempeh said that details concerning the burial and final rites of Ghana’s first female presidential candidate will be announced by the President in due course.
Oheneba Prempeh, son of the late Otumfuo Sir Agyemang Prempeh and Otumfuo Akomfrehene, also confirmed that the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, has been duly informed of the passing of the wife of the late former President Jerry John Rawlings.
“The family has informed His Excellency the President, who, in turn, caused a statement to be issued confirming Nana Konadu’s death,” he noted.
“At this stage, we are in deep mourning and respectfully ask for privacy. All further announcements will be made by the government,” Oheneba Prempeh added.
Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings, aged 76, passed away on Thursday morning after a short illness.
