NPP mourns Samuel Arthur Odoi-Sykes
In a statement dated October 7, 2026, and signed by National Chairman John Boadu, the party said Mr Odoi-Sykes devoted several decades to public service, democratic governance and constitutional democracy.
It said Ambassador Odoi-Sykes had “paid his dues” through a life of service to God, country and the party, and that his legacy of principled leadership, patriotism and selfless service would remain part of Ghana’s democratic history.
He served as National Chairman of the party from 1998 to 2001, a period the NPP said was instrumental in uniting and strengthening the party ahead of its historic electoral victory in 2000.
