Accra, Nov. 9, GNA – The National Democratic Congress (NDC) on Tuesday express its condolences to the family of Alhaji Sumani Zakari, the party’s Northern Region chairman, who passed away on Monday at the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital in Accra.
A statement signed by the National Chairman of the party, Dr Kwabena Adjei, said the late Alhaji Zakari had the distinction of being the longest serving chairman of the Party since its formation in 1992.
It described Alhaji Zakari as an astute politician with excellent leadership and organizational skills.
The party said his untiring efforts, selfless dedication and onerous support were manifest in the successive political victories chalked by the NDC in the Northern Region since the return to constitutional rule in 1992.
The party said the late Alhaji Zakari was not only an ingenious political strategist but a great unifier whose sense of discipline, hard work and maturity helped to keep the NDC together in the Northern Region.
“The NDC expresses its deepest grief for the loss of Alhaji Sumani Zakari. He will be sorely missed by the entire NDC family,” it said.
