Following the breaking news of the demise of former President Jerry John Rawlings, there have been reports making waves that his wife, Mrs Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings, has been hospitalized.
YEN.com.gh sighted such reports on thebbcghana.com and several low-ranking news websites but has deduced that they are likely untrue.
None of the articles was able to capture which family member confirmed the news of Nana Konadu's demise or how exactly she is doing.
There was also no indication of which particular hospital she was sent to, given that it is true, and a number of the reports indicated that their reports were not fully confirmed.
It is undoubted that the surviving wife of the late former President is in deep emotional pain and may need a lot of attention considering how close she and her husband were.
The public is advised to be circumspect of which news to circulate in these times as the demise of Jerry John Rawlings is a big blow to Ghanaians but a bigger one to his family.
However, despite these uncertainties, in the face of the fact that Jerry John Rawlings himself had been ill for a while with no public notice before his demise, it is possible that any illnesses, particularly in this difficult moment, would be effectively shielded from the public.
In other news, former President John Dramani Mahama and the leader of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has reacted to the news of Former President Jerry John Rawlings' death.
Jerry John Rawlings, who passed away on the morning of November 12, 2020, was the founder of the NDC which has produced presidents such as the late John Evans Atta Mills and John Dramani Mahama.
