FROM MRS REBECCA AKUFO-ADDO I first met Obaa Yaa, at the beginning of my marriage to former President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo and from that very moment, we formed an instant and genuine bond. She was a lively and vivacious woman, full of warmth and unmistakable charm, with a distinctive sense of style that madeherpresenceunforgettable.Shesawtheworldthrough bright, joyful colours, which was beautifully reflected in her ever-striking hairstyles and radiant personality. A deeply committed and passionate supporter of the NPP, Obaa Yaa possessed remarkable insight into party dynamics. She was generous with her wisdom, offering thoughtful advice and perspective that proved invaluable to me, both during my time as the wife of Candidate AkufoAddo and later as First Lady. Throughout our association, Obaa Yaa showed sincere appreciation for any support I extended to her. Gratitude came naturally to her; it was simply part of who she was. I will dearly miss her calls, her laughter and the uniquely affectionate way she addressed me as “Auntie Becky”. May the good Lord grant her eternal rest. TRIBUTE W 20 A Loving Farewell 1934 MRS.
