President Akufo-Addo has declared seven days of national mourning following the death of former President Jerry John Rawlings.
He has also directed that all national flags are to be flown at half-mast for the next seven days in all parts of the country to honour J.J. Rawlings.
“In honour of the memory of former President Rawlings, the Vice President and I have suspended our political campaigns for the same period,” he announced on Thursday, November 12.
“I convey the deep sympathies of government and the people of Ghana to his wife, the former First Lady, Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings, the children, and family of the late President, in these difficult times,” he added.
