The National Democratic Congress Majority Caucus in Parliament has paid tribute to the late Naser Toure Mahama, a former Member of Parliament for Ayawaso East, praising his humility in leadership and commitment to public service.
The heartfelt condolence message highlighted the late Member of Parliament’s (MP’s) kindness, collaboration and harmony in working with other Members of Parliament.
Comfort Doyoe Cudjoe-Ghansah, the First Deputy Majority Whip and also the National Democratic Congress MP for Ada, who led the delegation to visit Hajia Amina Adam, the wife, at her residence in Accra on Thursday, said: “His leadership in humility is a rare quality, and it’s clear our brother left a lasting impact on his constituency and the House.”
The Majority Caucus also donated GH¢100,000 to the bereaved family.
“We have to do the needful and pay our last respects, and today, I am here on behalf of the Speaker of Parliament and the Majority caucus to present GH¢100,000 to the widow and the family,” she said.
The late Mahama passed away on Sunday, January 4, 2026, and he has since been buried.
During the funeral on Sunday, January 11, 2026, Mr Bernard Ahiafor, the First Deputy Speaker of Parliament, described him as a diligent “committee man” who served on several key committees, including Energy, Roads and Transportation, and the House Committee.
Reading a tribute on behalf of Mr Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin, the Speaker of Parliament, Mr Ahiafor said the late MP’s professional background in the oil and energy sector strengthened parliamentary oversight of petroleum regulation and licensing.
He said: “Hon. Naser was known for meticulous preparation and a strong focus on value-for-money assessments during committee deliberations, frequently interrogating whether government contracts served the best interests of taxpayers.”
Mr Ahiafor added that the late MP’s contributions on the Floor of Parliament were largely through formal parliamentary questions, focusing on drainage and flood control, health infrastructure, and hospital projects within the Ayawaso East Constituency.
