Businessman and philanthropist Ibrahim Mahama has donated GH¢200,000 to support the family of the late Ghanaian actress Beverly Afaglo.
The generous contribution was made as family, friends, colleagues and sympathisers gathered to mourn the late actress and bid her farewell.
Mahama’s donation has attracted attention, with the GH¢200,000 contribution appearing to be the biggest individual donation announced during the funeral proceedings.
The businessman is known for supporting individuals and causes through philanthropic contributions, and his latest gesture comes as a show of solidarity with Beverly Afaglo’s family during a difficult period.
The donation is expected to provide meaningful support to the family as they deal with the loss of the actress and the responsibilities surrounding her funeral and final arrangements.
Beverly Afaglo was a familiar face in Ghana’s entertainment industry, having built a career as an actress and public figure. Her passing has generated an outpouring of grief from fans, colleagues and people within the creative industry.
The presence and support of well-wishers at the funeral have demonstrated the impact she had on those around her during her lifetime.
Mahama’s GH¢200,000 donation has consequently become one of the notable moments of the funeral, with many expressing appreciation for the gesture.
Beyond its financial value, the contribution represents an expression of sympathy and solidarity with a grieving family at a time when support from friends, colleagues and members of the wider community can be particularly meaningful.
The donation also adds to a long-standing tradition in Ghanaian society where individuals, organisations and philanthropists contribute towards funeral arrangements as a way of supporting bereaved families.
As mourners continue to pay their final respects to Beverly Afaglo, the support from Ibrahim Mahama and others serves as a reminder of the strong bonds that exist between Ghana’s entertainment community and the wider public.
