Kumi-Woode uses 'Departed 8' memorial to urge Ghanaians to build lasting legacies
Brigadier General Apostle Dr Benjamin Godson Kumi-Woode urged Ghanaians to prioritise making a positive impact on society over the pursuit of material wealth, saying the true measure of a person's life is the legacy they leave behind. He spoke at the National Inter-Faith Memorial Service for the eight departed victims on August 6 at the UPSA auditorium. He encouraged Ghanaians to draw lessons from the solemn occasion and commit themselves to lives of purpose, service, and meaningful contribution.
Kumi-Woode stated, "As they pass on, may we who are alive take certain lessons, even from this memorial service, as we journey on in life." He also quoted Greek philosopher Plato, saying, "What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal." He explained that acts of service to one's country, community, and fellow human beings become an enduring legacy that continues to inspire future generations.
