James Lutterodt, a contestant from Keta SHS who competed in the 2021 NSMQ, passed away.
While this is happening, sympathies are being shared on social media. The news of James’ passing leaves them in a state of shock.
Commiserating with the family of KETASCO 2021 NSMQ star, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) flagbearer recalled James’ and his colleagues sterling performance during the 2021 NSMQ even though they lost to Prempeh College in the end.
Mahama continued that it was joy to watch the trio pulling out a stunning performance, making their school proud.
The former president consoled and encourage James’ family to strong while describing the passing of the young boy as ‘heartbreaking.’

However, his family has not yet made the tragic announcement or the cause of death public.
Lutterodt attended the University of Ghana, Legon, studying computer science.
Francisca Lamini, James Lutterodt, and Bright Senyo Godzo of Keta SHTS, who made history as the first school from the Volta Region to reach the NSMQ final, are continuing to make an impression with the next step in their post-high school lives.
