In a startling turn of events, Hajia Fatima Kassim, a Ghanaian woman who was presumed dead during her pilgrimage to Mecca, has miraculously reappeared in Accra.
The Ghanaian Consulate in Saudi Arabia had earlier issued a death certificate to her family, confirming her passing while on the religious journey. However, in a dramatic twist, Hajia Fatima returned home in a taxi from the airport, after her death was announced accompanied by a medical report from Saudi confirming her death.
The news of her return has left many in shock, especially after her family had already begun mourning her loss. Hajia Fatima, who was visibly flanked by her relatives, appeared in a video with Channel One TV journalist Umaru Sandha, recounting her ordeal. While details of what transpired remain unclear, her sudden reappearance has sparked mixed reactions, with some calling it a miracle and others demanding further clarification from the Saudi and Ghanaian authorities.
The incident has raised questions about the accuracy of death certifications issued abroad and the need for thorough verification before such declarations are made. Hajia Fatima’s family has expressed immense relief at her return, though many are still puzzled by the circumstances surrounding her presumed death. As the story continues to unfold, Ghanaians are eagerly awaiting an official statement from the government to shed light on this mysterious case.
