Defence Minister, Dominic Nitiwul, has announced that the wife of the slain Ghanaian young military commander, Barbara Mahama, has been offered a job to work with one of Ghana’s foreign missions.

Mr Nitiwul said the move is to help the widow and her children deal with the trauma after the gruesome murder of her husband.

“We gave her options; she is into communications so we gave her options, she said she wanted a particular job at the Foreign Ministry and we put her there. The idea is to take her completely away from this country for some time so that she does not keep remembering those problems that are there,” Mr Nitiwul stated in the Western Region.

Barbara’s late husband was lynched at Denkyira-Boase during an early morning jogging by locals who suspected he was an armed robber after sighting a firearm on him.
