Madam Attivor who was very visible throughout the 2020 electioneering period has not been seen at any major party event with her last public outing being to the funeral of Jerry John Rawlings in January 2021.

She was Minister for Transport in Ghana until her resignation in December 2015 due to a controversial bus re-branding contract.

She was appointed in February 2013 by President John Mahama after the general election in December 2012.

The news of her death has since been confirmed by her aide and top NDC members in the Volta region, including the party’s Deputy National Communications Officer, Godwin Ako Gunn who have all been commenting on the sad news.
