The governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) is mourning the death of Alhaji Fuseini Maiga, the founder of the party’s Nasara Wing with a directive that all party flags in all regional offices should fly at half-mast for the next seven days.

Alhaji Maiga died in the late hours of Sunday, 27 September 2020, following his involvement in a car accident.

“Alhaji Maiga, without doubt, had been the embodiment of the vision and aspirations of NPP Nasara, and certainly, he would forever be remembered for his unparalleled contribution to making the NPP extremely attractive to the good people of Zongo and other settler communities in the country,” the party said in a statement.

“Once again, the party stands with the bereaved family and would provide them the needed support in these difficult times.

"May Almighty Allah bless the gentle soul of our departed father, mentor and patriot, Alhaji Maiga, and grant him Jannatul-Firdaws,” the statement added.

Alhaji Maiga was survived by three wives and 14 children.
