Nane Maria Annan, has revealed how Kofi Annan died and according to her, her late husband, the late ex-Secretary General of the United Nations, died peacefully in his sleep.

Mr. Annan’s foundation confirmed his demise in a statement on Saturday.


This was made known on the verified Facebook page of President Akufo-Addo on Saturday.

The President wrote:

“The Government and people of Ghana, First Lady Rebecca and I are deeply saddened by the news of the death, in Bern, Switzerland, of one of our greatest compatriots, Mr. Kofi Annan.

“I extend, on behalf of the entire Ghanaian nation, our sincere, heartfelt condolences to his beloved widow, Nane Maria, and to his devoted children, Ama, Kojo and Nina, on this great loss. I am, however, comforted by the information, after speaking to Nane Maria, that he died peacefully in his sleep.

“Consummate international diplomat and highly respected former Secretary General of the United Nations, Mr. Kofi Annan was the first from sub-Saharan Africa to occupy this exalted position.

“He brought considerable renown to our country by this position and through his conduct and comportment in the global arena. He was an ardent believer in the capacity of the Ghanaian to chart his or her own course onto the path of progress and prosperity. Undoubtedly, he excelled in the various undertakings of his life, leaving in his trail most pleasant memories. His was a life well-lived.

“I have directed that, in his honour, Ghana’s national flag will fly at half-mast across the country and in all of Ghana’s diplomatic missions across the world, from Monday, 20th August, 2018, for one week.

“Rest in perfect peace, Kofi. You have earned it. God bless.”

he was a wise man. If he had kept that Nigerian woman, perhaps we would have been marking 20 years of his demise.... Nigerian woman are problems excluding my mom

Ghanaians were fortunate to have had a great man like you.




But the zoo is so unfortunate to have a certified failure and jihadist as president all thanks and praises to sophisticated mourons and coneheads.
