NPP Orders Flags To Fly At Half-Mast As It Mourns Dr Akoto Osei

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has issued a directive for all flags of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to fly at half-mast for seven days beginning today.

This must be observed at the offices of the party in all regions and constituencies as well as the party’s headquarters in Accra.

This is in honour of late “statesman” Dr Anthony Akoto Osei who passed away on Monday, March 20, 2023, after an illness.

“In honour of his memory, the NPP directs that all Party flags at the national headquarters and in the respective regions and constituencies be flown at half-mast for the next seven days.”

In a statement on Tuesday, March 21, the NPP said the news was shocking and unbelievable.

His party described him as an embodiment of “humility, dedication and selflessness” in his service to the NPP and the country.

“He was also a renowned statesman having served this country with distinction as a Minister of State at the Finance Ministry during the Kufour administration, and later as a Minister for Monitoring and Evaluation in the first term of the Akufo-Addo administration.”

“The Party extends its heartfelt condolences to his immediate family and also commiserates with the rest of the nation for the painful loss of this illustrious citizen.”
