Former President John Dramani Mahama, on Saturday, visited the home of the late John Ndebugre in Accra to commiserate with his family.
The former MP for Zebilla died in his home in Zebilla in the Upper East Region.
Signing a book of condolence, Mr. Mahama wrote, “so shocked to learn of your sudden passing. You’ve been an elder brother, mentor and comrade."
"Your words of advice and good counsel have served me well in my political career. Rest in peace, my big brother," the former President added.
Mr Mahama was accompanied by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) MP for Zebilla, Cletus Avoka, NDC MP for Bawku West, Mahama Ayariga, NDC MP for Builsa North, James Agalga and other officials of the NDC.
The late John Akparibo Ndebugre was a lawyer and Member of Parliament for Zebilla on the ticket of the People’s National Convention (PNC).
He was a former Provisional National Defence Council (PNDC) Secretary but later became an avowed critic of the regime.
On Friday, May 6, it was reported that Mr. Ndebugre had passed away.
According to reports, the former lawmaker who hails from Tinmonde in the Bawku West District died at home in Zebilla on that Friday afternoon.
The vociferous politician is reported to have been battling an illness until his death, although it is unclear what caused his death.
He died at the age of 72.
