“He requested for food and we did accordingly, we spent sometime chatting with him after he finished eating, he then said he wanted to sleep a bit since he had not slept much the previous night so we left only to return this morning to be told that he died last night,” Starr FM quoted the unnamed daughter.
Quaye was a former national swimmer as well as a handball enthusiast. He achieved a lot during his days as a sportsperson and administrator at the National Sports Authority.
