Late John Evans Fiifi Atta Mills was a Ghanaian politician and lawyer who served as President of Ghana from 2009 until his death in 2012.
President Mills' first formal teaching assignment was as a lecturer at Faculty of Law, Legon where he spent close to twenty-five years teaching.
He was a man who had an amazing character and rare leadership qualities, adding that his legacy remained ever crucial to the nation's forward march.
Prof. Mills pursued peaceful and non-violent politicking and did not relent in that endeavour, although some sought to ridicule him for it.
He always preached about unity and stability of the nation ahead of narrow political and personal interests.
