Ghana’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs is calling on the public for assistance in locating relatives of Stephen Kofi Boamah, a 40-year-old Kumasi-born Ghanaian known within his circle as “Gully,” who was found dead inside his apartment in Berlin, Germany.
According to the appeal, German authorities discovered his body at the residence, prompting the need to formally notify next of kin back home before further arrangements can proceed.
With no immediate contact established for his family, the Foreign Ministry has stepped in to help bridge that gap, reaching out publicly in hopes that someone with information about his relatives will come forward.
Tracing family members is a necessary step not only for delivering the difficult news but also for coordinating the eventual return and burial arrangements for his remains, a process that typically requires next-of-kin involvement and documentation from the family side.
Anyone with information about Stephen Kofi Boamah’s relatives or background in Kumasi is being urged to contact the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the nearest Ghanaian diplomatic mission to assist in the ongoing effort to reach his family.
Cases like this are not uncommon among Ghanaians living abroad, particularly those who may have lost close contact with family back home over the years, underscoring the importance of maintaining accessible emergency contacts for citizens residing outside the country.
