Ghanaian radio presenter, Abdul Karim, well-known as Nana Romeo, has apologized over a comment he made about the girls who died in the accident caused by the son of Bishop Salifu Amoako.
Two girls, Justine Agbenu and Maame Dwomoh, died following the fatal accident which occurred on Saturday, October 12, 2024.
Discussing the unfortunate incident on UTV’s United Showbiz program on Saturday, October 19, 2024, Romeo remarked how death is regarded in Islam.
As a Muslim, Nana Romeo reiterated that it’s Allah (God) who gives and still takes. Stressing that since He is the giver and taker of life, whichever way someone dies cannot be questioned much.
