N JUABEN:Koforidua mourns late President Mills

 
Ghanaians mourn Prez Mills  

The whole of the Koforidua Township on Tuesday observed the one week celebration of the death of late President John Evans Atta Mills.

Many traders at the central market area wore black and red dresses
to mourn the late president.

Taxi drivers and some commercial drivers had red banners flying on
their vehicles while others pasted the portrait of the late President on
their vehicles.

Some traders at the central business area mounted loud speakers in
front of their shops and played dirges.

At the Koforidua Jackson’s Park where the Eastern Regional
Coordinating Council observed the one week celebration of the death of the late President, the whole place was filled to capacity with people
clad in black and red attire.

Many, who went to the Park, could not get seats in spite of the many extra chairs that were brought.

At the regional office of the National Democratic Congress (NDC),
around 11.00 hours, when the Ghana News Agency visited the place,
canopies had been erected and dirges were being played.

Since the death of the late President, the New Juaben South constituency of the NDC had been mourning daily with music blearing
dirges in front of the office.
