A dramatic moment unfolded in Parliament on Friday, January 3, 2025, when Colonel Isaac Amponsah, the personal bodyguard to President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, collapsed during the President’s final State of the Nation Address.

The incident occurred shortly after President Akufo-Addo began his speech, which highlighted his administration’s achievements and plans for Ghana’s future. Col. Amponsah, a long-serving and trusted aide-de-camp, was standing guard in the chamber when he suddenly lost consciousness and collapsed without warning.

The shocking event was captured on video, showing Parliament’s medical team rushing to the scene to provide immediate assistance. After receiving first aid, Col. Amponsah was promptly transported to a nearby medical facility for further evaluation.

Visibly alarmed by the situation, President Akufo-Addo paused his address briefly to ensure his bodyguard received urgent care before resuming his speech. Despite the interruption, the address continued, with the President reflecting on Ghana’s progress during his tenure and the nation’s future trajectory.

The condition of Col. Amponsah remains undisclosed at this time, but updates are expected in the coming hours. The incident added an unexpected and somber note to what was otherwise a historic moment in President Akufo-Addo’s leadership.

Probably fatigue, the response was ineffective, dragging and crowding a man who needed medical officers as first responders was entirely wrong.
