Tema Aircraft Crash: Victim married just three months ago - Reports

Captain Frank Amoaning Donkor, one of the men who died in the recent helicopter crash at Tema Community 1, reportedly had only recently tied the knot.

A post shared on X by ASK on Wednesday, March 18, 2026, claimed that Captain Donkor married his wife on December 13, 2025, just three months before the accident.

The post captioned “Captain Frank Amoaning Donkor, one of the victims of the Tema Community 1 aircraft crash, tied the knot with his wife just three months ago, on December 13, 2025. Captain Frank, who had 15 years of aviation experience and more than 12,000 flight hours, was 36 years old at the time of his passing. His brother, Elijah Ofori Donkor, was 25 years old” together with pictures of the couple and videos of them dancing together during the ceremony.

This new report has sparked widespread debates on social media, with many questioning how such an experienced pilot could be involved in the tragedy.

Some users expressed disbelief, noting Captain Frank Amoaning Donkor’s extensive aviation background.

Others claimed without evidence that he may have allowed his younger brother, Elijah Ofori Donkor, to take control of the aircraft, leading to the accident.

Authorities have, however, not confirmed these claims, and investigations into the cause of the crash are ongoing.
