By David Adadevoh
ACCRA — “It is with a heavy heart that we announce the sudden and untimely death of the president of the republic of Ghana,” the statement said, adding that Mills, who had travelled recently abroad for a medical check-up, died hours after he got sick.
He died in a hospital in the capital Accra, his office said, without providing a cause.
According to the constitution, Vice President John Dramani Mahama is to take over as interim leader and he was to address the nation shortly. Lawmakers began gathering at parliament for his swearing in.
Presidential elections are set for December in a country seen as a rare example of stable democracy in West Africa and which recently joined the ranks of the world’s large-scale oil producers. Mills was to be the ruling party’s candidate.
