Wife of late President Prof. John Evans Atta Mills has given an account of how her husband was humiliated despite his selflessness for the country.

Ernestina Naadu Mills said her love for the former President became even stronger because he stood firm to his core values and never gave in to any manipulation.

According to her, “…Fiifi was often battered and bruised on the battlefield of politics but he held firm to his personal values of truth, simplicity, honesty and abiding respect for all. These were the qualities I loved about him..”
