Late ET Mensah has been remembered by Cletus Apul Avoka, the member of parliament for Zebilla.
On October 1, Mr. Mensah passed away in South Africa after a protracted battle with illness.
The former Ningo-Prampram MP was a politician without a spot, according to Avoka. He continued by saying that Mr. Mensah made a strong and assured remark, and his passing will leave a significant gap in Ghana’s political landscape.
On the Citi Breakfast Show on Citi FM, the Zebilla lawmaker expressed his “condolences to the family and all those who are admirers of ET Mensah” and recalled their time in Parliament.
“He [ET Mensah] joined us in the second Parliament and the time I got to know him more was in 2009 when he was Chief Whip, and I was Interior Minister. During that time, I called him every morning to find out what was happening in Parliament and when I needed to be in Parliament. I later went to the House as Majority Leader and ET became Minister for Labour Relations, and we became very close when we were brought together to help Mahama on special initiatives as members of the presidential special drive that eventually became the Three Wise Men.”
“He is bold, confident, and results-oriented, and he was very close to Rawlings and one could only be too close to Rawlings when he was good and if there was any difficult job, and you gave it to ET, he would do it well.”
“He spent much of his adult life serving the country, and he did so without blemish. He was also abrasive if you were standing in the way of success and so it will be very difficult to find his replacement.”
