Kofi Akpaloo, the Presidential Candidate for the Liberal Party of Ghana (LPG), has described the late Akua Donkor, founder of the Ghana Freedom Party (GFP), as a beacon of hope for the less privileged.
Reflecting on her impact, he stated that her life serves as a profound inspiration for those hailing from deprived communities and backgrounds.
Akpaloo emphasized that Donkor’s journey demonstrates that young individuals have no excuse for inaction, noting, “She is a hope to the hopeless.”
He underscored the significance of her accomplishments, asserting that education is not a prerequisite for achieving greatness, including the presidency.
“No young man or woman has no excuse to can say you cannot do it. Because she has proven beyond reasonable doubt that you don’t need education to become someone in the country.”
She has proven that you don’t need education to become a President of the country or form a political party.”
Akua Donkor’s journey demonstrates that success is not solely tied to formal education.
Akpaloo remarked that no young man or woman can claim they cannot achieve their dreams, as Donkor’s life is a testament to overcoming obstacles without traditional qualifications.
The sudden passing of Akua Donkor at Ridge Hospital in Accra has sent shockwaves throughout Ghana, leaving many in mourning.
Known for her significant contributions to the farming industry, she garnered considerable accolades for her work.
As the country reflects on her impactful life, private legal practitioner Yaw Dankwah noted that the Ghana Freedom Party must notify the Electoral Commission regarding her death, which may affect upcoming electoral logistics.
In this time of sorrow, her legacy continues to inspire many, reminding them of the potential for greatness in the face of adversity.
