Mr. Mahama signed the Book of Condolence on behalf of the NDC.
He wrote: “We are all saddened by the passing of our respected mother, former First Lady Madam Theresa Kufuor.
“She carried herself with dignity and was truly acknowledged by the people of Ghana as the mother of the Nation.
“On this sad occasion, our hearts go out to the widower, President Agyekum Kufuor, and the entire family. May God grant her peaceful repose.”
Funeral arrangements are underway and would be announced in due course, the family has said.
Meanwhile, flags continue to fly at half-mast as per the instruction of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.
The instruction took effect from Monday, October 2 and scheduled to end on Sunday, October 8.
