So sad smh, May his soul rest in peace, God be with his family and the people of Ghane, may they have the fortitude to bear his loss-Amen.
Eeeyaaa.
This is so sad. My condolences go out to my Ghanaian folks on the loss of your president.
Am so shocked he jst became 68year May his soul rest in d bossom of d lord
Ghana is that country i so much love. i was there sometimes in April 2009 on the 100th day anniversary of Mr. Attah Mills. i was there to see his predecessor, Mr. John Agyekum Kuffor who gave me all the humility in the wall at his Airport Residential abode, a stone throw to Chief Dele Momodu, Ovation magazine publisher’s home. i love what i saw in Accra then, i also had an encounter with Pastor Andy Yawson of Mathew Ashimolowo’s KICC, Accra. it was a very intersting journey but never my first, second or third trip to Accra. i have always found myself in Accra for one event or the other. i have friends in Accra and i was happy for Mr. mills. I think his death is a lesson in leadership. he worked himself to death without stealing his nation’s commonwealth to buy expensive treatment for himself abroad. No wonder he died in a Ghanaian hospital. imagine his sense of nationalism. I think every enthusiast of Ghana should rise up and give him a rousing tribute. after him is the deluge, Nigerian business investors like Jimoh Ibrahim should start preparing for the worst season as the new pharaoh in Egypt might not have regard for Joseph.
you do know you could have just said Rest in peace right?
May his soul rest in peace. Amen

RIP to the sage of Ghana!

Ghana is indeed a beautiful country. I love the people so much, simple and humble. If any Naija is still looking down on Ghana, they need to drink a bottle of humility because the country is moving forward with so much potentials.
u should be ashamed of saying Nigeria looks down on Ghana! maybe Ghanians have in inferiority complex, thats not the fault of Nigerians! please lets pray for this mans Family instead of talking about petty things!
always sad to hear of death regardless of age but i pray he rests in perfect peace. hmmmm please does this have anything to do with tb joshua prediction. the lord is our strength, thou heard the ghanian president used to frequent tb joshuas synagoue.
Aww…. This is so sad. May God rest his soul!
Condolences to all Ghanaians and his family. May his soul Rest in peace

It is not a shock by any means to any Ghanaian. because President Atta Mills was very sick from the day he became president – a mixture of diabetes, cancer and Alzheimers,
Although it was not a surprise, we all seen this coming since 2008, but it is a sudden demise cos no one expected it so sudden. IF i was his wife Naadu Mills i would have advice him to resign the last few years and relax – your own health is more important than leading a country you cannot even lead, but rather led under grass by the greedy Ahwois and Tsikatas. I felt sorry for him in the past few years everytime i heard him speak because this was a respectable man when he was a professor in Legon, but his ongoing illness and combination of the pressure of trying to lead a country took a toll. Because its a lot of pressure to be president. This reminds me of your own president Yaradua . Mills ye ma wu due. da yie paa wai. Goodbye Farewell. Now you can rest.
May his soul rest in Peace… I love d man, a patriotic Ghanian… He died in a hospital in Ghana… If its a Nigerian politician he wuld be flown to Saudi Arabia or India.
I commiserate with all Ghananian citizens for the loss of their dear President JOHN ATTA MILLS May his soul rest in peace.
New President, John Mahama has just been sworn in.

@ Habba
You should be ashamed of yourself for saying maybe Ghanaians have inferiority complex. What about Naijas are too arrogant, and need to humble themselves sometimes. I love my people but we need to learn from others.
THANK YOU! WELL-SAID! mtchewww no wonder Naija no dey prosper!
May your soul rest with the lord, so sorry to my friends in ghana
