"Oh how I miss you already. Death is so cruel… I will miss our long conversations and gossips," she wrote.

Her tribute also shed light on a remarkable coincidence she and the late minister had once discussed privately.

Both had marvelled at how Alhaji Ibrahim Adam and John Dumelo ended up serving at the same ministry at different stages of their respective careers.

Alhaji Ibrahim Adam served first as Deputy Minister for Agriculture before eventually rising to become Minister for Agriculture.

Years later, Dumelo was appointed Deputy Minister for Food and Agriculture, placing him within the same institution.

"Life hmmm," Gifty reflected on the uncanny parallel.

She noted that the two men had also spoken about how extraordinary it was that her parents could count both an experienced agriculture minister and a sitting MP as in-laws, a conversation that clearly left an impression on them both.
