I am really still in Shock. And still lost for words. A fantastic man who makes things happen. A humble academician, intelligent teacher and innovator with vision. He is loved by all who know him. He sees beyond the impossible. The man who made the impossible possible for many issues including sports and rehabilitative medicine (SERM) postgraduate program within the faculty of family medicine of the Ghana College of Physicians and Surgeons (GCPS). The man who opened up the way for this SERM postgraduate program in Ghana and sub Saharan Africa for the first time. He is a great loss to GCPS and Ghana. My thoughts and prayers are with his family during this difficult time. God bless his soul. He will never be forgotten. RIP

Meeting and knowing Prof in the course of my life journey was something unthinkable.
He was a man with few words but impactful actions. He was selfless and dedication man, always having solutions to problems.
I broke down when I heard of your journey to the father. You are a true legend and as said, legends don't die...
May the Lord keep you safe till we meet one-day.
My family is grateful, we love you.
Your family loves you.
Ghana loves you.
Rest well

Jacob lived and died for country. He committed so much of himself to improve higher medical education and professional training through the medium of the College and its Faculties. His sacrifice will not be in vain. Rest in Perfect Peace.
