Members of the Ho Municipal Assembly at an emergency meeting on Monday paid tribute to Mr Komla Dumor, a BBC Journalist, who died at the weekend.
The assembly members took turns to eulogise Mr Dumor for raising high the flag of Ghana on the international stage.
�Yes, Mr Dumor has paid his due. He deserves the honour,� Mr Yao Semordey, Presiding Member of the assembly, said after he had asked the members to observe a minute�s silence in honour of Mr Dumor.
Mr Emmanuel Kafui Dzamefe, Assemblyman for Lume, described Mr Dumor as an �Iconic figure� with passion for excellence and urged media practitioners to emulate his example.
The emergency meeting tasked a five-member committee to investigate alleged renovation of the Municipal Chief Executive�s residence without the approval of the assembly.
