President John Dramani Mahama has urged Ghanaians, particularly members and leaders of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), to uphold the values of humility, integrity, and ethical leadership exemplified by the late President John Evans Atta Mills.
Speaking at the 13th anniversary wreath-laying ceremony for the late former president, Mr. Mahama emphasized that the best way to honour his legacy is to embody the principles he stood for, especially as the country navigates current socio-economic challenges.
“To truly honour President Atta Mills is to reignite the spirit of ethical leadership and humility that he so strongly believed in,” Mahama said. “These values are crucial if we are to overcome the divisions and difficulties we face as a nation.”
He underscored the importance of unity, respect for others, and purposeful leadership, urging current and aspiring leaders to learn from how the late president handled adversity.
“Leadership is about the legacy you leave behind. Atta Mills left behind a legacy of peace, modesty, and service. We must be inspired by his example,” Mahama added.
NDC National Chairman Johnson Asiedu Nketia also addressed the gathering, noting that the tensions and controversies that previously marred such commemorations have now been resolved, ensuring a more dignified remembrance of the late president.
