Valentina Ofori Afriyie, the widow of Kwadwo Asare-Baffour Acheampong (KABA) could barely stand on her feet, least of all walk, as she made her way to the one-week memorial service of her husband held at the premises of the Multimedia Group at Kokomlemle in Accra on Saturday 25 November.
Relatives, friends and sympathisers had to hold her on either side to help her walk as she wailed uncontrollably.
