The President of the Ghana Physicians and Surgeons Foundation, Dr. Bertha Serwaa Ayi has confirmed the sad news surrounding a renowned statesman and President of the Sickle Cell Foundation of Ghana Professor Kwaku Ohene Frempong. According to her, the internationally recognised Sickle cell advocate and a National asset has passed away.
She added that, the family of Professor Kwaku Ohene have requested for privacy and prayer support. They want limited calls and visitations. However they will make a funeral website available for mourners who will like to share some words of condolences.
As an accomplished Statesman, Professor Kwaku Ohene Frempong moved across the length and breadth of the whole Ghana preaching that, Sickle Cell is not a death sentence. As a Sickle Cell patient, he received many recognition of awards from the United States of America Department of Health and Human services.
Ghana has lost an icon. However, we can only express our condolences to the family. May his gentle soul continue to rest in perfect peace.
