The National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Sammi Awuku, became the talk of Paga during the burial service of the late C.K Tedam.

During the burial service for the legend, rains accompanied by wild windstorm interrupted proceedings for some minutes, to the surprise of the gathering, Sammi Awuku with a few others cleaned and re-arranged hundreds of chairs for visitors to sit on and also made sure the canopies were re-fixed.

Sammi Awuku who was named "Youth Youth" by the late C.K Tedam had a personal touch with the statesman and always made sure the old man was well catered for until his demise.

Thousands including President Akufo-Addo, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, and other dignitaries came to Paga to mourn the late party stalwart, who was the Chairman of the Council of Elders of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
