Hundreds of sympathizers on Thursday evening thronged the Arakan Mess at Burma Camp to partake in a vigil held in honour of the late Major Maxwell Adam Mahama, who was brutally murdered on Monday, May 29th.
The two-hour program was attended by the hierarchy of the Ghana Armed Forces and several government officials.
It was also used as an opportunity to console the family and wife of the fallen hero, Barbara Mahama.
Friends and family, clad in black and red, converged at the mess hall amidst a morose atmosphere as mourners shed tears and voiced their sorrows.
