Head of the funeral planning committee, James Gbeho, in a press release said the family, in consultation with government, agreed on the date.
The funeral rites for the 73-year-old will come off at the Independence Square in Accra.
Gbeho said, “The family is working in conjunction with government on the finer details of the funeral ceremony and will communicate the arrangements in due course.”
Rawlings, Ghana’s longest-serving
head of state and founder of the National Democratic Congress, died on
November 12 at the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital in Accra after a short
illness.
