The younger brother of the late Deputy Minister of Finance, John Kumah, has finally broken his silence over reports that the former lawmaker’s widow, Lilian Aryeequaye, has entered a new marriage. His remarks come at a time when public discussions and social media reactions surrounding the development continue to intensify.
In his first public response since the news emerged, John Kumah’s brother urged the public to approach the matter with empathy and restraint. He stressed that Lilian Aryeequaye, having endured the pain of losing her husband, deserves the freedom to make personal decisions about her life without being subjected to harsh judgment or speculation.
According to him, the widow’s decision to remarry should not be interpreted as a lack of respect for the late minister’s memory. He explained that the family continues to honour John Kumah’s legacy while also recognising that life does not end for those left behind. “Everyone heals differently,” he noted, adding that companionship and emotional stability are important aspects of moving forward after loss.
He further revealed that the family remains united and supportive, placing priority on the wellbeing of the children and the preservation of John Kumah’s values. Rather than focusing on controversy, he encouraged the public to remember the late lawmaker for his contributions to national development and public service.
John Kumah’s death left a deep void in Ghana’s political space, and emotions surrounding his family remain sensitive. By breaking his silence, his younger brother has sought to calm tensions and redirect public attention toward compassion, privacy, and respect for personal choices made in difficult circumstances.
