GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN: “AMANSANBOAFO)” : HON. DR. JOHN AMPONTUAH KUMAH

 

 

There was once a constituency known as *EJISU nestled in the rolling hills of the countryside, where the people thrived and everyone knew each other.

In the heart of the town was the renowned MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT who represents an old gnarled oak tree, its branches stretching up to the sky like ancient arms reaching for the heavens. This tree had been there for as long as anyone could remember, and it had become a symbol of strength and resilience for the townsfolk.

Under the shade of this majestic tree, the people in the constituency would play and laugh, the elderly would sit and reminisce, and young lovers whispered sweet nothings to each other. It was a place where people gathered to celebrate, mourn, and simply be together. The old oak had seen it all and stood as a silent witness to the ebb and flow of life in the town.

Late John Kumah

But one fateful day, 7th March 2024, a violent storm swept through EJISU unleashing its wrath upon the old oak. With fierce winds and lashing rain, the tree stood no chance, and its ancient trunk finally gave way, crashing to the ground with a mighty thud. The townspeople were devastated as if they had lost an old friend.

In the days that followed, the community came together to mourn the loss of the tree. They shared stories of their time spent under its branches, reflecting on the moments that had now become cherished memories.
As they cleared away the debris, the townspeople vowed to plant a new tree in its place, a symbol of hope and renewal for the future.

Years passed, that is,3-YEARS and 3 months and the tree grew tall and strong, casting a familiar shadow over the town square. It became a gathering place once again, where new memories were made and old ones were cherished. The old oak may have been gone, but it was not forgotten, living on in the hearts and stories of the townsfolk, a testament to the enduring spirit of the community.

And so, the legacy of ” AMANSANBOAFO”, HON. Dr. JOHN AMPONTUAH KUMAH who represents an old tree lived on, a reminder that even in loss, there is always the promise of new beginnings and the enduring power of memories.
