Patrick Amoako Sefa, the father of the late Ghanaian footballer Raphael Dwamena, has shared the ongoing struggle of the family in coming to terms with the loss.

In an emotional interview on Peace FM in Accra, Sefa expressed, “We’ve been in a state of sorrow since receiving the news, but we rely on our faith to provide us with strength.”

Sefa revealed that the family is in the process of making arrangements to repatriate Dwamena’s remains for burial.

He indicated that they are seeking assistance from both the Ghana Football Association (GFA) and the government to facilitate a smooth process. “We’ve been in touch with his wife, who mentioned arrangements to secure a flight to bring his body back to Ghana. We are reaching out to the GFA and the public to support us in this challenging time,” he earnestly requested.

In addition to the practical challenges, Sefa appealed to Ghanaians for their emotional support, saying, “We ask for your prayers during these difficult moments.”

The 28-year-old footballer tragically passed away after experiencing a cardiac arrest during a league game on Saturday, November 11. Dwamena collapsed in the 23rd minute of the match between his team, Egnatia, and Partizan.

Promptly taken to the hospital, he was declared dead upon arrival. The football community and fans mourn the loss of a talented player, while the family faces the painful process of saying their final goodbyes.
