Those clamouring to know the cause of death of Prof John Evans Atta Mills are “opportunistic” people, Samuel Atta Mills, brother of the late president has said.
In the estimation of the MP for Komenda-Edina-Eguafo-Abrem constituency, well-meaning Ghanaians including the true family members of the late president are not asking to know what killed him and so wondered why people who are remote from the family keep pushing for that.
According to him, those interested in what killed the late president need that information for opportunistic political purposes.
For him, everything should not be about “NPP and NDC, it is not going to help us, let’s think as Ghanaians”.
He told Moro Awudu on Class91.3FM’s Executive Breakfast Show on Monday, July 24 that: “I’m his blood brother, same mother and same father but I’m not asking for that [cause of death]. So, who are the family requesting for that? Those who are his brothers and sisters are not asking for that. Those who are his extended family members in Cape Coast are not asking for that.
“It is just a few opportunistic people who are asking for this; who claim they are family. How are they family members? How far removed are they?” Mr Mills asked.
“We all have extended family in other areas who feel that this is the cocoa season and then they need to get involved in whatever they are sharing; there is nothing to share. Actual family is not asking for this; anybody can get up and claim that they are a family member,” Mr Atta Mills emphasised.
His comments come as the family marked the fifth anniversary of Prof Mills’ death.

What a calamity! What this supposed brother of Atta Mills is saying beats the imagination. His logic is warped, I tell you. Even when cats and dogs die unexpectedly, vet doctors look for the cause of death. In fact, you treat your 'brother' as an inanimate object, with no life and dignity. Please, sleep very well, reflect and see whether you have been honest to your own 'brother'.
we have iligetimate children in the system and if an iligemate child in demanding for something he doesn't know about he should the heads of his family members provided tradition even demand he should be brought into the fante land because where am coming from illigemate Children and bound by tradition to get involve deep in family matters. if it is true that the son actually ask of that is very unfortunate.
Do the family owe the "asomdwe park", yet he was burried there. Why? Bcos he was the president of Ghana and everything about Ghana must be known by the citizens.A doctor of your calibre must not speak like that.
Hmm... I cannot get the logic of this so-called Samuel Atta Mills... The truth is that the good people of Ghana are dying to know the cause of the late president's death. The only ones who would not want to know about Prof Mills' death are probably his murderers.
Is this man really a brother to the late president?
these are some of the reasons why people think these fantes are a real ............... listen to a twin brother saying such things about his deceased brother. very sad indeed
Brother of mills, u talk all. those non family members asking for mills' postmortem report are sick in the head
IS THIS SO CALLED BROTHER SERIOUS AT ALL? HE WAS THE ONE WHO WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BY HIS SICK BROTHER BUT ABANDONED HIM AT THE POINT OF DEATH AND NOW SEE WHAT HE IS SAYING. PROF. MILL'S SON SAID TODAY THAT HE WANTS TO KNOW WHAT KILLED HIS FATHER AND YOU DESCRIBE HIM, THE SON AS BEING REMOTE FROM THE FAMILY?
IS THIS MAN SAYING THE LATE PROF.MILLS SON IS AN OPPORTUNIST...?
And those concealing the cause of his death are also “opportunistic” people. Because if it comes out they will loose their opportunity to be MP or even win power as party. Masa your brother is a public figure and no longer for your family. How many times have you not for political gains accused UP people of causing the death of Nkrumah. Wise up man and you must mature
