•President Akufo-Addo

President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo’s last State of the Nation address in parliament yesterday was disrupted by the collapse of his aide-de-camp (ADC).

In a viral video, the ADC, identified by Ghana Web as Colonel Isaac Amponsah, fell midway into Mr Akufo-Addo’s address before the Ghana parliament.

Before he collapsed, Mr Amposah showed discomfort but could not help himself from falling to the ground.

The incident briefly interrupted the president’s address but he resumed his presentation after a few minutes, after the ADC was carried to a corner of the auditorium for medical attention.

The aide-de-camp of the vice president, a police officer, immediately took over to stand behind the president.

The cause of Amponsah’s collapse was yet to be ascertained at press time.
