Amissah-Arthur Was A Gentleman; Respectful Of All Others - Charlotte Osei

Former Chair of the Electoral Commission, Ghana (EC) Charlotte Osei has poured her sorrows out in mourning the death of the immediate past Vice President, Paa Kwesi Bekoe Amissah-Arthur.

Taking to Instagram on Friday morning, Mrs Osei said: “The former Vice President was a gentleman among gentlemen, always dignified and respectful of all others, regardless of their stature in life”.

Mr Amissah-Arthur passed away Friday morning at the 37 Military Hospital, where he was rushed to after collapsing at a gym.

The news comes to overshadow one that got the nation talking the previous night: the removal of Mrs Osei and two other commissioners from office by the president, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

But what is breaking the heart of Mrs Osei on Friday morning is the news of Mr AMissah-Arthur’s death.

“My heart is truly broken this morning by the very sudden and extremely sad passing away of HE Paa Kwesi Amissah-Arthur,” she wrote.



 

My heart is truly broken this morning by the very sudden and extremely sad passing away of HE Paa Kwesi Amissah-Arthur. The former Vice President was a gentleman among gentlemen, always dignified and respectful of all others, regardless of their stature in life. He was restrained in his politics and exceptionally brilliant and full of integrity. This is a sad loss for this country. May God give his family strength and comfort. May God grant him peaceful rest. 🙏🏾
