Let’s celebrate Mills for his was a life well lived – Kufuor
"Former President J.E.A Mills should be celebrated for he lived a fulfilled fruitful life", says former President John Agyekum Kufuor.Mr Kufuor said having earned a reputation as an exceptionally great professor, a tax expert who led the Internal Revenue Service for years, and then becoming a president, the former president had lived a successful life.
“How many people will get the opportunity to live such a brilliant life”? he asked, adding that “with his passing, even as we mourn him, we [should] celebrate him as a person who lived successfully.”
Mr Kufuor, who beat the late President Mills in the 2000 elections and repeated the feat in 2004, told Joy FM’s Super Morning Show Wednesday that the late president was a likable person who treated others with friendliness and deference.
He said the nation had lost a great person and its leader hence “all of us should be mourning him and should be preparing to send him off befittingly.”
Mr Kufuor said with the passing of the former president, Ghanaians should let his life guide them to temper with the incessant partisanship and divisiveness that has often characterised the nation’s politics.
