Contrary to circulating reports, John Kumah’s wife asserts that her husband’s demise was not due to poisoning but rather a valiant battle against a terminal illness lasting over a year.
In an interview with Asaase News, Apostle Lilian Kumah, the widow of John Kumah, refutes claims of food poisoning, revealing that her late husband fought a terminal disease discovered by his doctors in Germany, leading to his passing on Thursday, 7 March 2024.
Apostle Mrs. Lilian Kumah, also the General Overseer of Disciples of Christ Ministries, solemnly urges an end to speculation surrounding her husband’s death, emphasizing the distress it causes her immediate and extended family.
Expressing frustration, she calls for swift police action against individuals like Captain Smart, who publicly alleged poisoning without providing evidence, questioning why such claims persist without accountability.
Apostle Lilian Kumah emphasizes the need for legal consequences for those making false claims, especially against her late husband, and urges authorities to expose any involvement in the alleged poisoning.
Addressing the true cause of her husband’s death, Apostle Lilian Kumah reveals that John Kumah was diagnosed with a blood-related disease in August 2023 in Germany during a medical check-up, with no mention of poisoning by any doctors in Germany or Ghana.
Despite her husband’s pain, Mrs. Kumah highlights his resilience, driven by the motto, ‘We don’t do what is convenient; we do what we are commanded to do,’ dispelling any notion of food poisoning in her husband’s medical reports from both Germany and Ghana.
Dr. John Kumah passed away at Suhum government hospital, and efforts to stabilize him for the planned journey to Germany proved unsuccessful after the doctor noticed his deteriorating condition during the ambulance trip from Ejisu to Accra.
