The New Patriotic Party (NPP) is calling on sympathizers and well-wishers to participate in paying their last homage to the late C.K Tedam, a founding member of the party whose sudden death occurred at his residence earlier this year, April 26.
Clement Kubindiwor Tedam who acted strongly as the former chairman of NPP Council of Elders, was until his untimely death a revered figure in the party and for that matter, played a founding role in merging two political traditions, Busia and Dombo into what is now the New Patriotic Party.
However in a statement signed by the party’s General Secretary, John Boadu, the final funeral rites have been announced and are as follows.
