The mother of the late Defence Minister, Dr. Edward Omane Boamah, is reported to be in stable condition and has returned to her family in Kwahu.
The Eastern Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Dr. Mark Oliver Kevor, revealed this in an interview on Accra-based Channel One TV.
This update comes just days after the tragic military helicopter crash that claimed the lives of her son and seven others.
The elderly woman was taken to Accra for medical observation on Wednesday evening following the tragic incident through the intervention of Health Minister Kwabena Mintah Akandoh.
“Currently, his mum is fine. It is not easy losing your only child. It is not easy. At her age, she was expecting that she would rather lead and her son would give her a befitting burial. But now, it is a different story, one that she is obviously not prepared for,” Dr. Kevor said.
The Acting Director-General of the National Information Technology Agency (NIA) acknowledged that the family has been a strong source of comfort during this period of grief.
“She was brought down to Accra from Koforidua on Wednesday, but she is back with her Kwahu family. Her chiefs and family have been around. Also, the family of the father of Dr. Omane Boamah from Effiduase has also been around trying to receive visitors,” he added.
