Minority Leader in parliament, Cassiel Ato Forson eulogizes Prof. John Evans Atta Mills (Asomdwee Hene).
John Evans Fiifi Atta Mills was a Ghanaian politician and legal scholar who served as President of Ghana from 2009 until his death in 2012. He was inaugurated on 7 January 2009, having defeated the governing party candidate Nana Akufo-Addo in the 2008 Ghanaian presidential election. He was previously the Vice President from 1997 to 2001 under President Jerry Rawlings, and he contested unsuccessfully in the 2000 and 2004 presidential elections as the candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC). He was the first Ghanaian head of state to die in office.
His fond memories will never fade. His soft voice and tone was meek and mild anytime he spoke. We shall forever remember you.
Today marks the 11th year since we bid farewell to a remarkable leader and a man of unparalleled integrity President John Evans Atta Mills.
President John Evans Atta Mills was not only a visionary leader but also a unifying force who epitomized the values of unity, humility and selflessness.
Let us remember President John Evans Atta Mills not only for his political acumen but also for his compassion and empathy towards his fellow citizens. He had an innate ability to connect with people from all walks of life, and his open- door policy welcomed all to share their concerns and aspirations for a better Ghana.
As we commemorate this solemn day, let us rekindle the spirit of unity and cooperation that President John Evans Atta Mills embodied.
On behalf of the Minority cactus in Ghana's parliament, I extend our heartfelt condolences to the John Evans Atta Mills family and loved ones.
You remain in our thoughts and prayers as we pay tribute to the life of this entraordinary leader and the title he held as Asomdweehene.
