Followed by funeral mass on January 26, from 9 am to 11 am at the Holy Spirit Cathedral in Accra.

A burial service for Ghana’s first president of the Fourth Republic will be held on January 27, from 9 am to 11 am at the Independence Square.

The funeral arrangement had initially been scheduled for December 20, 2020 before it was postponed indefinitely due to concerns raised by the Awadada of the Anlo State, and Agbotui.

Former President Jerry John Rawlings died on Thursday, November 12, 2020 after a short illness, at the Korle Bu Teaching hospital in the run up to the 2020 general elections.
