As announced earlier by the family, the one-week commemoration for the farmer-turned-politician took place today. The ceremony was marked by deep grief, as family members and sympathizers gathered to honor her memory.
Akua Donkor’s family made it evident that her passing, though some time ago, remains a heavy burden on their hearts. The gathering was filled with sorrowful expressions, emphasizing the significant loss they continue to feel.
