Akuffo Addo aide-de-camp recovers after collapsing during President’s final State of the Nation Address
Colonel Isaac Amponsah, the Aide-de-Camp (ADC) to President Akufo-Addo, has made a full recovery after collapsing during the President’s final State of the Nation Address in Parliament on Friday.
Col. Amponsah collapsed midway through the speech but was promptly attended to by medical staff on-site and then transported to the 37 Military Hospital for further assessment.
A source from the Jubilee House has confirmed that he has since been discharged and is now resting at home.
While the exact cause of the collapse has not been officially confirmed, medical experts have speculated that it may have been due to stress and extended standing.
Col. Amponsah has served as President Akufo-Addo’s Aide-de-Camp (ADC) following the promotion of his predecessor, Bismark Onwona, to Major General.
Prior to taking on this role, he worked as an instructor at the Military Training Academy and served with the Defence Intelligence Unit of the Ghana Armed Forces.
