Valentina Nana Agyeiwaa, popularly called Afia Schwarzenegger, has asserted that the entire amount of funeral donations she obtained from her late father's funeral couldn't even foot the cost of system rentals.
Considering the high-profile dignitaries who were present at Afia's father's funeral, coupled with the huge amount of donations that had been announced, it turned into perceived that the comedienne found out a huge amount of donation from the occasion.
This turned into so much so that she was heavily slammed by critics for turning the occasion right into a money-making venture.
Following the assertions, Afia took to social media to debunk claims that she made a huge profit from the funeral.
But in a new development, the comedienne has added that almost all of the costs incurred throughout the funeral have been footed with funds from her very own pocket.
"The total amount of donation I received could not even pay for equipment rentals. Everybody who came for my father's funeral can attest to ethe truth that I booked the whole of Suit Garden hotel. The cheapest room in that hotel is set GHC700.000 a night. For the food and drinks, my friends catered for it. Chairman Wontumi andco. Including a friend from Australia. Rental was over GHC42,000 and the entire donation turned into much less than that.
"The undertaker was paid, band, dancers, security, transportation, funeral home costs and all exclusive. So wherein is the profit they are taking about. I did now no longer bury my father to expect anything from anyone. He is my father. Plus, I turned into given one-year earlier notice that he's going to die and it is only a idiot who wouldn't prepare himself," she told Zionfelix.
Asked why it seemed as though she singlehandedly handled her father's funeral, Afia Schwarzenegger said;
"My father usually requested me to stand in for my siblings. It does not mean that my siblings are boke but, in a family, there's someone who unifies everyone. Also, I lived with my father. So if he's dead and God has abundantly blessed me enough to give him a befitting burial, why not."
