Some female politicians in Sunyani have described the late Akua Donkor, the leader and Election 2024 Flagbearer of the Great Freedom Party (GFP), as an inspiring and courageous role model for women in politics, irrespective of their party inclinations.

Madam Akua Donkor passed away at the Greater Accra Reginal Hospital, Ridge, on Monday, October 28, 2024, at the age of 72 years.

Reacting to her sudden death in an interview with the Ghana News Agency (GNA) in Sunyani, the women also described her death as a “big blow” to womanhood, especially in a period where civil society organisations and actors are pushing for more women representation in active politics.

“Some of us admired her from afar. She was indeed an icon in our multi-party democracy and her death is very sad,” Ms Leticia Gyan, a staunch member of the New Patriotic Party stated.
