The Ghanaian Muslim community across the United States gathered in Atlanta on Friday, August 22, 2025, to offer special prayers in honor of the eight fallen heroes who tragically lost their lives in a helicopter crash in Ghana.
The solemn event, sponsored by the Gonjaland Association of North America (GANA), brought together Imams, chiefs, and prominent members of the Ghanaian diaspora to mourn the loss and pray for the departed souls. Among the dignitaries in attendance were Chief Bin Idi, Chief Mohammed Awal, and respected Imams who led the faithful in heartfelt supplications.
The gathering not only served as a moment of spiritual reflection, but also as a testament to the unity and resilience of the Ghanaian community in the U.S. Participants expressed their deepest condolences to the families of the deceased, while reaffirming their solidarity with the people of Ghana during this national tragedy.
“Today, we stand together as one family—bound by faith, heritage, and compassion. Our prayers are with the families of our brothers who have paid the ultimate price in service to Ghana,” said Chief Bin Iddi, Dagowura of Gonjaland, who addressed the gathering.
The event concluded with messages of unity and encouragement for continued support among Ghanaians both in the homeland and abroad. The community emphasized the importance of coming together during times of grief to uplift one another and honor the sacrifices of those who serve their nation.
