As he made his way towards the palace, a group of mourners mobbed him and began showering him with praise.

The crowd of mourners described Ibrahim Mahama as a ‘destiny changer’ and a force for good in the world.

The praise followed the president’s brother fully funding the surgery of Suzy Pinamang, a student of the Adventist Senior High School (SHS) in Kumasi, who was shot in the eye.

Ibrahim Mahama paid for her to be treated in the United Kingdom (UK) to regain her sight and has continued to fund her recovery process.

Despite being praised, the businessman appeared displeased by the noise and the way the crowd was mobbing him, causing him to sharply rebuke them.
