The Mortuaries and Funeral Facilities Agency, known as MOFFA, is taking steps to protect bodies after death.
MOFFA plans to send workers to every district in Ghana. These workers will observe funeral events happening across the country.
Their main job will be to watch for and stop any mistreatment of dead bodies. This action aims to ensure respect for the deceased.
The agency will give these personnel mobile phones and motorbikes. This equipment will help them travel fast to funeral grounds.
They will use the phones to record any suspected mistreatment they find. This documentation will help MOFFA take action.
MOFFA's goal is to strengthen the rules against mistreating corpses. The agency wants to make sure all funeral practices are respectful.
This move by MOFFA shows a commitment to upholding dignity for the deceased and their families.
Further details on the deployment and specific actions will be provided by MOFFA officials.
