The Secretary General of the African,
Caribbean and Pacific Group of
States, H.E Dr Mohamed Ibn Chambas
expressed his sadness at the passing
away (Friday November 16th) of former Vice President of the Republic
of Ghana, Alhaji Aliu Mahama (photo).
He served as Vice-President under
former president John Agyeman
Kuffour who is currently heading a
West African mission to observe the Sierra Leone elections. “The demise of another Eminent
Ghanaian so soon after the death of
former President Mills is truly tragic
and must have thrown the people
Ghana into mourning again. The late
Vice President was a brother and good friend with whom I have shared
many memorable occasions, including
a recent visit to me in Brussels during
a trip to Europe. He was one who built
bridges and relationships across
political, religious, ethnic and other divides and will be remembered for his
gentle disposition, serenity, disarming
charm and well-known generosity,”
stated the Secretary General in a
letter to the President of Ghana, H.E
Mr John Dramani Mahama. “Though primary of the private
sector, [the late former Vice
President] entered politics with a
storm, serving as Vice President with
admiration, distinction and gravitas.
He brought his strong personality to the position and served his country
and people without blemish,” he
continued. The Secretary General conveyed his
sympathies to his compatriots in
Ghana and special condolences to
the late Vice President’s wife Mrs
Hajia Ramatu Mahama, their children,
family, and loved ones.
