The former Hearts of Oak and Black Stars Coach died at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital on Tuesday morning after battling throat cancer for eight years.

Naapke, speaking to Starr News noted that God had taken the former Black Stars coach out of his misery.

“We are saddened by the demise but we are relieved that the Lord has taken Jones out of his misery considering the fact that he had battled cancer for eight years”, he said.

The son of the late Attuquayefio, Calvin Attuquayefio added his voice saying, “Apart from the labour ward I don’t know which ward he hasn’t been to in Korle Bu. He was even due for another surgery…I think we should leave it this way and thank our maker for what has happened”.
