Akua Donkor

From the look of things, it seems the kind of ridiculous thoughts some people harbor in their minds are not going to end anytime soon.

The founder and leader of Ghana’s most vibrant political party, Ghana Freedom Party (GFP), Madam Akua Donkor says she wants a state burial when she dies.

According to her, aside her contribution to the development of Ghana via politics, she deserves such an honor when she is no more because her family cannot afford her funeral.

In an interview with Radio XYZ, Akua Donkor said she is the Yaa Asantewa of our time, fighting for the development of the nation. She further stated that there are so many things she has done to put the current government on its toes for the betterment of Ghana.

When asked about her real motif for wanting a state burial, the outspoken Akua Donkor replied by saying that she does not want her family members to incur any cost for the funeral.

“Funeral in Ghana is more than a party. People attend it just to eat and drink and this put pressure on the families organizing the funerals because they have to provide for all the people. I don’t want my family members to go through such an ordeal since it will even be difficult for them to finance the funeral. I do not have super rich family members. When I’m given a state burial, the government will do everything including hiring of canopies and chairs. My family members wouldn’t have to contribute anything so they can save money,” she stated.
