The late former President, Jerry John Rawlings, will be given a state burial and funeral on Wednesday, December 23, 2020, at the Independence Square in Accra.
This is according to a statement from the funeral planning committee which noted that Mr. Rawlings’ family “is working in conjunction with the Government on the finer details of the funeral ceremony and will communicate the arrangements in due course.”
The statement however didn’t bring closure on the controversy about where ex. President Rawlings will be buried.
Mr. Rawlings died on November 12 at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital after a short illness aged 73.
