Footage captured by blogger Tina News GH shows the emotional scene unfolding at an outdoor cemetery under overcast skies, with a small choir singing hymns nearby and floral tributes laid among military and security personnel in attendance.
The visit came only days after a deeply painful legal dispute involving Samuel Aboagye's family was brought to a close.
Samuel Aboagye's family sues wife
Samuel Aboagye, who also served as a former National Democratic Congress parliamentary candidate for Obuasi East, had raised doubts about the paternity of Abigail's infant daughter before his passing. Acting on those doubts, his family took the matter to the Obuasi District Court, seeking a court-ordered DNA test to establish whether the child was his biological daughter.
Abigail pushed back strongly, resisting the test and seeking legal injunctions to block the process.
The standoff ended on August 5, when Nana Kwabena Gyamera Oyiakwan II, the elder brother of the late Samuel Aboagye, announced that the family would no longer pursue the paternity case. The withdrawal brought a formal end to what had been a very public and emotionally charged legal battle for Abigail.
