In a deeply moving tribute to a fallen hero, celebrated music producer and sound engineer Qobrah Beatz has named his newborn son after his late brother, Alhaji Mohammed Muniru Limuna, one of the eight gallant individuals who tragically perished in the August 6th helicopter crash while on national duty.
The naming ceremony, held quietly in Wa, was not just a family affair—it was a powerful act of remembrance. Qobrah Beatz, known for his soulful productions and community spirit, shared that naming his son after Alhaji Muniru was his way of “keeping the legacy alive in the family and in the hearts of those who knew him.”
“He wasn’t just my brother. He was a light in our lives, a servant of the people, and a man whose compassion touched every corner of our community,” Qobrah said, his voice heavy with emotion.
Alhaji Muniru was more than a political figure—he was a visionary, a humanitarian, and a tireless servant of Ghana. At the time of his passing, he was serving as the Acting Deputy National Security Coordinator in charge of Human Security. His career spanned decades of public service, including roles as:
- Northern Regional Minister
- Upper East Regional Minister
- Minister of Food and Agriculture
- Minister of State at the Presidency, overseeing Human Resources and Scholarships
Born in Damongo Langbonto, Savannah Region, Alhaji Muniru was a proud descendant of the Damongo Wura Dange royal lineage. His academic journey took him from Tamale to the University of Ghana, and later to the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, where he earned a Master’s in Health Policy, Planning, and Financing.
Beyond politics, Alhaji Muniru was a man of the people. He founded the Tamar Water Foundation, which provided medical support, educational scholarships, and agricultural aid to underserved communities in Damongo and Busunu. He also established Kasha 99.5 FM, a local radio station amplifying grassroots voices and development.
During the 2024 NDC campaign, he played a pivotal role in fundraising and community mobilization, leaving an indelible mark in Salaga South and beyond.
“He always said he wanted to be remembered for the lives he touched,” a relative recalled at his state funeral. “And he truly lived that life.”
In naming his son after Alhaji Muniru, Qobrah Beatz has etched a legacy into the next generation—a name that carries weight, wisdom, and warmth. It’s a reminder that even in loss, love endures. And through music, memory, and family, the spirit of Alhaji Muniru continues to inspire.
As Wa mourns and celebrates, this moment stands as a testament to the power of legacy—and the healing that comes when we honor those who gave everything for the greater good.
