NDC mourns Hawa
Accra, March 22, Ghanadot/GNA - The National Democratic
Congress (NDC) on Thursday expressed its heartfelt
condolences to the family of the late Madam Hawa Yakubu and
the New Patriotic Party (NPP) fraternity.
A statement signed by its Deputy General Secretary Baba
Jamal said the National Executive Committee of the NDC had
received with shock the news of the sudden death of Madam
Hawa Yakubu, the illustrious daughter of Ghana.
“The anguish that fell on National Executive members, who
were holding a meeting at the time of her death was
announced, is a clear manifestation that the NDC leadership
held the late Hawa Yakubu in high esteem.”
The NDC said while the pain of her loss would take a long
time to heal, it was the party’s belief that her immediate
family, her constituents and the NPP within which she
devoted her life and energies, would take consolation in the
fact that Madam Hawa had left giant footprints in the
political landscape of Ghana.
The NDC also extended its condolences to the chiefs and
people of the Upper East Region who gave Ghana such a
vibrant, affable and kind personality.
Madam Yakubu died on Tuesday in a London hospital.
