The Ghana Journalists Association GJA has commended the late Kwadwo Asare Baffuor Acheampong KABA for expanding the frontiers of freedom of Speech with his popular political Show Ekosi Sen on Asempa FM.
In a statement to console the bereaved family signed by the General Secretary Kofi Yeboah, the Association said it's “utterly shocked†to hear the sudden death of the host of popular afternoon political talk show Ekosi Sen on Asempa FM.
“Indeed, the death of KABA is a big blow to the Multimedia Group, the GJA and Ghana as a whole. It is in such sense of irredeemable loss that the GJA expresses its deepest condolences to the bereaved family, especially his wife, Valentina Ofori Afriyie and little daughter, Nana Yaa, as well as the entire Multimedia family.â€
The Association acknowledged KABA’s contribution towards the development of the nation through his radio programme, Ekosii Sen, which is widely listened to, both home and abroad.
“There is no doubt that KABA has paid his dues to journalism in Ghana and served his country so well. The GJA believes his death is only divine.â€
The GJA also charged all and sundry that in this grieving moment, and in utmost solemnity and sobriety, all friends, families and loved ones should reflect on the good works of KABA in order to take a cue from them, rather than allow the pain of loss to overwhelm their thoughts and utterances.
The Associations also pledged their support to the organization of the funeral of KABA in order to give him a befitting burial.
