A former New Patriotic Party (NPP) Ablekuma Central Member of Parliament(MP), Victor Okuley Nortey, has passed on.
Mr Nortey reportedly died on August 18, 2024, at the Nyaho Clinic in Accra after a brief illness.
Mr Sackey noted that the deceased was his campaign manager for the 2023 NPP primary, during which he emerged victorious.
As a longest serving MP, the candidate acknowledged that Mr Nortey’s direction, guidance and dedication were invaluable.
He added that Mr Nortey’s loss will be deeply felt especially at this crucial time.
“My thoughts and prayers are with his family and the entire NPP fraternity in Ablekuma Central during this difficult time,” he mourned.
The former MP was born in 1958 in the Greater Accra Region and was first elected in a 1999 by-election, following the death of then-MP, Clement Samuel Crabbe.
He served as MP from March 26, 1999, to January 6, 2009, making him the longest-serving MP for the Ablekuma Central constituency.
