The news of his death was shared on Facebook on Wednesday, 30 September 2026, by Awal Mohammed, a well-known member of the NPP Communications Team, who knew Majeed from their days in student politics.
The exact circumstances leading to the Ashanti Region-based NPP politician's death remain unknown.
Mohammed described the deceased as a man who endured unimaginable loss yet pressed on, noting that Majeed "was never quite the same again" after the tragedy.
Life defined by public service, personal tragedy
The Kumasi gas explosion, which occurred roughly two to three years before his death, reportedly left Adam Abdul Majeed with severe burns that required months of hospitalisation before he could recover physically.
The emotional weight of losing his entire household in a single moment, however, was a burden he carried for the rest of his life.
Before his passing, Majeed had built a steady career in public service and party administration.
He served first as Constituency Communications Director for Asawase and later as its Constituency Secretary.
The late NPP politician also held the position of Head of Projects and Programmes at the Zongo Development Fund and subsequently worked with the Students Loan Trust Fund.
Mohammed recalled Majeed from their shared history in student organisations, including the National Union of Ghana Students (NUGS) and the University Students Association of Ghana (USAG), describing him as a familiar and respected figure from those formative years.
