Thanksgiving service for the late Major Maxwell Mahama is currently underway at the Lighthouse Chapel International, Qodesh at North Kaneshie in Accra.

The service forms part of the funeral rites to be performed for the slain soldier after his burial ceremony last Friday June 9 at the forecourt of the State House.

The military officer was brutally lynched and partly burnt on May 29 by some residents of Denkyira-Boase in the Central Region who claimed they mistook him for a thief.

Meanwhile, final funeral rites will be held at Bole from 13th – 15th June 2017 and Tumu from 16th – 18th June 2017 respectively.

So far more than forty suspects have been arrested and some remanded in police custody in connection with the Major’s demise.
