How Muntaka narrowly escaped the deadly helicopter crash

On 6 August 2025, a Ghana Armed Forces Harbin Z-9 helicopter crashed near Adansi Akrofuom in the Ashanti Region. The tragedy claimed the lives of eight people—including Defence Minister Edward Omane Boamah and Environment Minister Ibrahim Murtala Mohammed—as confirmed by multiple sources.

The Deputy Director-General of the National Service Authority, Fuseini Donkor, revealed on TV3’s "NewDay" that Muntaka had been the fifth passenger booked on the flight.
