"His discipline, honesty and integrity made him an outstanding servant of the Ghanaian people and of the public interest. His objective was always the advancement of Ghana, and not partisan considerations. Even in old age, he continued to make crucial interventions in our nation’s discourse. Ghana has lost a dedicated nationalist and fine gentleman," the president noted on Facebook.
Justice Crabbe, a former Supreme Court judge, died on Friday, 7th September, 2018, after a short illness.
Former President Mahama tweeted: "Justice VCRAC Crabbe has passed. As children we were besotted with his name, VCRAC. As adults we stand in awe & respect at his service to Ghana & Africa in the area of law & legislative practice."
