I am glad you knew the lord\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>KABA died at the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital on Saturday, 18 November 2017 after a short illness. He was the host of Ekosii Sen on Asempa FM.<\/p>\n<p>Below is the widow\u2019s full tribute :<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGood morning MaryVal Happy anniversary! Wow, So soon it\u2019s been a year. A year of God\u2019s love, favour, mercy and abundance of Grace.<\/p>\n<p>Exactly a year today you formally agreed to be my wife and me your husband. I\u2019m grateful I chose you and you chose me: you know why; because in the last one year, I\u2019ve had no reason to ask why I married and to you. As far as I am concerned I made the right decision.<\/p>\n<p>In the last one year, God has also blessed this family with the miracle baby Nana Yaa. What else can a man ask for in marriage?<\/p>\n<p>So as we mark this milestone, I want to say thank you for choosing me. But it hasn\u2019t all been a smooth sailing experience. We\u2019ve had our own peculiar challenges and even through it all you stood by me&#8230;&#8230;sicknesses, financial, my family, my mum, and most of all from me.<\/p>\n<p>I know you sometimes complain I don\u2019t listen to you or that when you speak I don\u2019t let you finish and I cut in I know sometimes it\u2019s bothersome to you. I promise to make amends. Forgive me if I hurt you in any way.<\/p>\n<p>In the years ahead, I can only promise with God\u2019s help to be a better husband and a father in all spheres.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s only one thing which lacks in our journey, getting closer to Christ. We must take steps to formalize our relationship with him again soon as we leave this place God willing to our house.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s only one thing I ask of you; don\u2019t give up on me Don\u2019t give up on us Never stop praying for us- Myself, Yourself and Nana Yaa.<\/p>\n<p>When I go wrong please correct me Have never stopped loving you. Ours was not a mistake It\u2019s the envy of all Let\u2019s guard it jealously If I were to be asked again the same question KABA do you take Valentina Ofori-Afriyie as your wedded wife? I\u2019ll answer that a thousand times, Yes!!! Happy anniversary MaryVal Love you\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>This is what you wrote to me on our anniversary and how come the dream has been cut short? You are an exceptional human being. God-fearing, lover of God, humble, respectful, tolerant, understanding, smart, and caring no wonder the first word that came out of Nana Yaa\u2019s little lips was Dada.<\/p>\n<p>You made fatherhood effortless and a sight to behold. You made me the happiest woman. There was never a dull moment with you. You were the perfect husband anyone would wish for.<\/p>\n<p>I can\u2019t believe you are gone but I take consolation in the fact that you are in the bosom of our Lord. I am glad you knew the lord.<\/p>\n<p>Me Kwadwo as I called you and your response was MVOAS the abbreviation of my name. Fare thee well sweet Joe.<\/p>\n<p>I promise to continue to pray for us, can you also promise me you will do same? What should I tell Nana Yaa when she asks of Dada? Me Kwadwo can I ever stop asking WHY?<\/p>\n<p>But I take consolation in the word of God in the Bible in your favourite book Philippians 4:13 which says I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me\u2026<\/p>\n<p>I will also teach Nana Yaa to memorize Philippians 4:19 which says \u2026and my God shall supply all my needs according to His riches in Glory by Christ Jesus. I will also remember to tell her what a wonderful father and husband you were. It\u2019s unfortunate we couldn\u2019t have more, but like everyone tells me the Lord knows best. You will continually be in our hearts.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for being a huge part of my life. My Husband, My friend, My Love, rest well in the bosom of the Almighty!!!<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nRGwCEow6d0\" frameborder=\"0\" gesture=\"media\" allow=\"encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rkixgmmkdbI\" frameborder=\"0\" gesture=\"media\" allow=\"encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0VOyfJd-ZnM\" frameborder=\"0\" gesture=\"media\" allow=\"encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 31 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General News of Saturday, 16 December 2017 Source: classfmonline.com 2017-12-16 play videoValentina, wife of late KABA Mrs Valentina Acheampong, wife of the late Kwadwo Asare-Baffour Acheampong (KABA), has described her deceased husband as the flawless man of any woman\u2019s dreams.
