NDC shocked at the death of Prof Awoonor The National Democratic Congress (NDC) received with shock the sudden demise of Professor Kofi Awoonor, a former chairman of Council of State. We wish to state that the death of Professor Awoonor, who was a leading and National Executive Committee (NEC) member of NDC has created a vacuum in the party and, left a scar of pain and sorrow in the hearts and minds of the party followers. This will take ages to heal. Indeed the nation has lost a great statesman. Our senior comrade was a distinguish poet, writer, diplomat and politician full of wisdom and knowledge. These qualities were accessible not only to the academic fraternity but also to the world of politics in Ghana and the world over, especially Africans in the Diaspora. Professor Awoonor’s counsel in political organization and administration, especially in conflict resolution and mediation are a legacy that has become indelible in contemporary politics and governance, particularly in the NDC. These, were literary expressed with good sense of humour and passion. Efo Kofi will be forever remembered for the role he played in the Social Democratic fraternity worldwide. He was instrumental in NDC’s membership in the Socialist International. As the nation and the world over grieve over his untimely death and the thought of this despicable act of cowardice, the NDC extends its deepest condolence to the bereaved family. The Party also wishes the son of the late Professor Awoonor and all who survived that heinous attack a speedy recovery. MAY THE SOUL OF PROFESSOR KOFI AWOONOR REST IN PEACE
