The one-week observance for the late Akua Donkor, flagbearer of the Ghana Freedom Party (GFP), was held on November 28, 2024, in her hometown, Ejuratia, in the Afigya Kwabre South District of the Ashanti Region. Despite her reputation as a prominent figure in Ghanaian politics, the event saw no attendance from leading politicians, celebrities, or public figures.
Akua Donkor, who passed away on October 28, 2024, was a household name in Ghanaian politics, known for her boldness and unique approach to leadership. Her family had expected a significant turnout of notable personalities to celebrate her life and legacy. However, their hopes were dashed, as the absence of such figures left many attendees disheartened.
The observance, attended by family members, friends, and some local leaders, was a quiet and solemn occasion. Videos and photos from the event have surfaced online, highlighting the well-decorated venue. Yet, the absence of high-profile individuals has stirred debate on social media, with many questioning the level of support shown by Ghana’s political and celebrity circles in times of mourning.
Interestingly, the only notable political figure present was Betty Mould Iddrisu of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), who has personal ties to the town. Watch the video below..
