Former Ningo-Prampram MP, E.T Mensah Passes Away At 77

E.T Mensah

Preparations are in full swing for the lying-in-state ceremony of the late E.T. Mensah, scheduled to take place this evening, Thursday, January 4, 2024, at his residence in Prampram, Greater Accra Region.

The former Member of Parliament for Ningo-Prampram and Council of State member passed away in South Africa at the age of 77 in October 2023 after a prolonged battle with illness. His body was subsequently repatriated to Ghana in the same month.

As part of the final burial rites, Ade Coker, the former Greater Accra Regional Chairman of the opposition National Democratic Congress, revealed that E.T. Mensah’s body is undergoing a tour of some of his properties and businesses before the lying-in-state ceremony at his Prampram home.

“He has to pay his last respects to his house. From there, we will go to Tema Harbour, where he has a cold store to pay homage to the people there. From there, we will move to his family home at Prampram. Then we will rest his body in his home at Prampram where there will be wake keeping.”

Ade Coker

The late E.T. Mensah, a former stalwart of the National Democratic Congress, will be laid in state from 5 pm to 10 pm, with a burial service scheduled for the forecourt of the State House on Friday, January 5. Subsequently, a Thanksgiving service in his honor will be held at the Methodist Church in Prampram on Sunday, January 7, 2024.

“On Friday, ET Mensah will be sent to the State House, where he will lie in state for people to file past him. The NDC leader and former president, John Mahama, President Nana Akufo-Addo, NDC leaders, and council of state members, among others, will all be present at the ceremony to pay their last respects to ET Mensah. Then he will finally be buried at Prampram.”
