In an X post on Monday, April 21, Mr. Mahama joined the global community in mourning the death of the pontiff, who led the Roman Catholic Church with compassion and humility since 2013.

He noted the profound loss felt by the Roman Catholic Church and all Catholic faithful in Ghana and beyond.

He recalled a memorable visit to the Vatican with his wife, Lordina Mahama, where they had the distinct honour of meeting Pope Francis.

Reflecting on the Pope’s legacy, Mahama praised his deep commitment to social justice and his unwavering advocacy for the poor and marginalized.

He acknowledged the pontiff’s leadership as one that would continue to inspire generations.

Pope Francis died at the age of 88, the Vatican announced.

His death was announced by Cardinal Kevin Farrell in a statement released by the Vatican. He said: “Dearest brothers and sisters, with deep sorrow I must announce the death of our Holy Father Francis.”

“At 7.35 am this morning, the Bishop of Rome, Francis, returned to the house of the Father. His entire life was dedicated to the service of the Lord and His Church.”

“He taught us to live the values of the Gospel with fidelity, courage and universal love, especially in favour of the poorest and most marginalised.”

“With immense gratitude for his example as a true disciple of the Lord Jesus, we commend the soul of Pope Francis to the infinite merciful love of the One and Triune God.”

Pope Francis’s death came just a day after he delighted the crowds of worshippers at the Vatican on Easter Sunday with an appearance on the balcony at Saint Peter’s Basilica despite still convalescing after a severe illness.

Read full statement:

The world woke up to the sad news of Pope Francis’ passing. On behalf of my family and the people of Ghana, I extend heartfelt condolences to the Roman Catholic Church and all Catholic faithful in Ghana during this time of profound grief.

I fondly remember visiting the Vatican with my wife, Lordina, where we had the distinct honour of meeting Pope Francis.

His legacy of compassion, humility, and commitment to social justice will continue to inspire generations. His leadership and advocacy for the poor and marginalised resonate deeply.

May his soul rest in perfect peace.
