President Akufo-Addo has paid glowing tribute to the late Council of State member and former Ningo Prampram MP, Enoch Teye Mensah.

In his tribute, the President described E. T. Mensah as a good friend and a valuable source of advice during his presidency.

The President expressed deep sadness over the passing of E.T. Mensah, acknowledging the significant impact of his death.

He noted that it will take him a considerable amount of time to recover from the loss.

“He was a warm, generous, gregarious man with a keen intellect and wonderful sense of humour. In his element, you could find no better company, and he was a good source of advice for me as President of the Republic. I have lost a good friend, Ghana has lost a worthy patriot,” he said.

The tribute added a personal touch to the remembrance of E.T. Mensah, reflecting the close relationship between the two.
