From journalist to parliamentarian, Mark Woyongo’s voice boomed across Ghana. In Upper East, he championed regional development, a regional minister with a journalist’s heart.
Yet, fate dealt a cruel hand – a near-fatal crash, then the mantle of Minister for the Interior.
He tackled security challenges, his gaze resolute, even as political tides shifted.
Though his time in parliament ended, his legacy lingers: a bridge between communities, a voice for a region, forever etched in Ghana’s story.
He started as the Upper East Region’s Regional Information Officer in 1985 and stayed in that role until 1994, when he was named Minister Counselor for Information at the Ghana High Commission in London, UK.
After serving as Upper East Regional Minister, he was named Minister of Defense in 2013 and thereafter to the Ministry of the Interior.
We will update you as and when we confirm the cause of his death. He was 75 years old.
Mark and his wife Cecelia were married for many decades before death came to separate them.
