NAPO Honors President Atta Mills With Memorial House And Library  | Politics

Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, the Vice Presidential Candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has honoured the late President, H.E Professor John Evans Atta Mills with a Memorial House and a Library at his hometown, Ekumfi-Otuam, in the Ekumfi Constituency of the Central Region.

The project construction of which was supervized by Mr. Koku Anyidoho, a close aide to the late President Mills and the CEO of the Atta Mills Institute, is situated next to the family house of the Late President, the Odumnaa Family, in Otuam, and is 90% complete.

On Thursday, November 21, 2024, Dr. Prempeh, affectionately called NAPO, embarked on a final inspection of the project ahead of its completion and commissioning in the coming days.

He was accompanied by the Central Regional Minister, Hon. Justina MaryGold Assan and the NPP parliamentary candidate for Ekumfi, Stelfa Nana Adu Donkor Okumkom.

Nana Eniffua III, the Kyedomhemaa of the Ekumfi Asaman and Queen Mother of Odumnaa Family expressed the family’s profound gratitude to NAPO for honoring their son.

She also thanked Koku Anyidoho for his unwavering support and loyalty to his late boss and the family.

The Abusua Panyin of the family, Kwabena Biney expressed disappointment that with the exception of Koku Anyidoho and few others, the people that worked closely with President Mills, particularly leading members of the NDC including John Dramani Mahama have failed to honour the late President.

Koku Anyidoho, commending NAPO for the kind gesture, took a swipe at the NDC and their presidential candidate, John Dramani Mahama, whom he described as the biggest beneficiary of President Mills’ mysterious death and the NDC for doing absolutely nothing to honour the late President.

He said, even the Asomdwe Park, the final resting place of President Mills, it had to take him [Koku Anyidoho] to lobby the government of President Akufo-Addo to give it a befitting refurbishment.

He also noted that the erstwhile John Mahama administration and the Totobi Kwakye-led funeral Planning Committee have still not been able to pay the contractor that built the Atta Mills memorial library in Cape Coast.

Speaking at a short ceremony at the forecourt of the family house, NAPO said he decided to honour President Mills because he was a great Statesman whose contribution to this country cannot be overemphasized despite the desperate attempts by John Mahama to take all his [Mills] credits.

According to NAPO, honouring national heroes like the late President is a duty of all well-meaning citizens and that, the life that was lived by President Mills deserves to be be studied by all and sundry as well as his legacies protected.

He assured the family of the late President and Ghanaians in general of his continuous support in this regard.
