Roman Fada consoling Akua Donkor’s daughter
One of the most emotional moments at the late Akua Donkor’s funeral was when her former running mate, Philip Kwabena Agyemang, popularly known as Roman Fada, was seen consoling her distraught daughter.
He was seen warmly embracing the deceased’s daughter, who cried uncontrollably and appeared inconsolable.
Other grieving family members captured at the scene, also sought comfort from him.
Roman Fada was among the many dignitaries who gathered to pay their last respect to the late Akua Donkor at her funeral, which took place on Saturday, March 29, 2025, in Ejuratia, in the Ashanti Region.
She passed away on October 28, 2024, at Ridge Hospital in Accra.
Akua Donkor was a passionate advocate for farmers, women, and journalists. She Donkor stood out in Ghanaian politics for her commitment to grassroots communities, often using a bold and comical approach to capture public attention.
Popularly recognised by her slogan, “3ny3 nono,” her political journey began when she was elected as an Assemblywoman for Herman.
Her first attempt at the presidency was in 2012, but she was disqualified for failing to meet the requirements.
Undeterred, she continued her political aspirations, later supporting Papa Kwesi Nduom of the Progressive People’s Party (PPP) in that election year.
In 2016, a fire destroyed her party’s headquarters in Kabu, Akropong Constituency, Eastern Region, ultimately disqualifying her from the election.
Despite these setbacks, Akua Donkor remained a resilient and outspoken figure, advocating for grassroots needs and championing agricultural issues.
Listed as the third candidate on the ballot for the 2024 presidential election, she vowed to make significant changes if elected, outlining 18 ambitious promises.
These included completing the Saglemi Housing Project, providing free accommodation for public servants, increasing maternity leave from three months to one year, offering farmers financial support to expand their farms, refining petrol locally, providing clean and free water, and eradicating galamsey.
Her focus on agricultural and social reforms extended to pension support for farmers over 40, free cutlasses and fertilizers, and ensuring parliamentary representation for every trade.
