President John Mahama of Ghana on
Tuesday reached out to President
Goodluck Jonathan on the need for
the two countries to maintain the
cordial relationship that existed
between them before the demise of
late President John Attah-Mills.
The new President sent a five-man
delegation led by the Ghanaian
Minister of Foreign Affairs and
Regional Integration, Alhaji
Muhammad Mumuni, to formally
notify Jonathan of his
predecessor’s death.
Mumuni told State House
correspondents that the delegation’s
mission was in line with African
customs.
He said, “We are here at the behest
of President Mahama of the
Republic of Ghana. He has asked us
to come in accordance with our
revered African customs and
tradition to formally announce to
President Goodluck Jonathan the
untimely and the unfortunate demise
of his brother and colleague,
President Attah Mills, and also to
announce the funeral arrangements
that are being made and also to
deliver to him an invitation to attend
the funeral.
“When President Mills was alive, he
had good working relations and very
good chemistry with President
Jonathan. They consulted very
closely on issues of national,
regional, continental interest. We
think it is a personal loss to
President Jonathan as well and he
has expressed grief sentiments of
condolence, sympathy and wishing
his support and solidarity which we
will dutifully convey to President
Mahama.
“The funeral arrangement is on
August 8,9 and 10, when the funeral
rites will be carried out. It will
climax on the 10th with the burial of
late President Mills. Before then,
the body will be laid in state on the
8th and the 9th for viewing by
general public and distinguished
guests to our country.”
Meanwhile, Jonathan had promised
that Nigeria would be represented
at the funeral at the highest level
and assured Mahama support and
cooperation.
He also told Mumuni that an official
delegation would be sent to Ghana to
convey the country’s condolence
before the burial of the late
President.
