Sell your properties in Accra to fund your father’s funeral- Dr. Abban tells Kojo Antwi

Chief Executive Officer of Rigworld Group, Kofi Amoa-Abban has called out the “maestro” Kojo Antwi for soliciting for funds to help fund his late father’s funeral.

A GoFundMe account set up in the name of Kojo Antwi’s father, Opanin Kwadwo Asiama Asubonten, who died on 2 January 2023 at the Police Hospital in Accra has made it to social media.

Reacting to the GoFundMe link, Mr Amoa-Abban expressed his distaste at the gesture, while suggesting that the highlife music legend sell some of his properties to help fund the funeral.

“Kojo Antwi is a complete joke!!! You want £1,000,000 to bury your late dad, Have you ever done a free concert for your loyal fans in Ghana ??? Sell three of your properties in Accra to fund your dads funeral,” Amoa-Abban tweeted in response to the GoFundMe link.

However, checks on the GoFundMe link suggests that the crowdfunding is not targeted at funding Kojo Antwi’s father’s funeral, but rather a scholarship in his honour.

“In memory of my late kind father, this GoFundMe is for scholarships and care for a selection of orphans and the disabled in Ghana from now up till they graduate or learn a trade. – With love and togetherness from The Maestro Kojo Antwi,” the description in the GoFundMe page reads.
