Asiedu Nketiah pens 'heartwarming' message to his late mother ahead of Mother's Day

The influence and impact of mothers, they say, cannot be underestimated, especially in the success stories of many people. It is for this reason that the National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, has paid tribute to his late mother ahead of the 2026 Mother’s Day celebrations.

In a Facebook post shared on May 7, 2026, Asiedu Nketiah reflected on lessons he learnt from his mother, Hagar Akosua Afrah, also known as Kwaa, who died on May 2, 2014.

In a moment of eulogy to his mother, he shared an old photo of him with his late mother in what many commenters have described as a heartwarming moment.

According to him, the values his mother taught him have remained a guide throughout his life.

“Some of life's most enduring lessons are formed long before we fully grasp their significance,” he wrote.

He stated that his mother taught him to place God at the centre of everything, persevere with determination, respect everyone regardless of their background, and always do what is right.

“In Kwaa's quiet guidance, I learnt a few things worth sharing: To place God at the centre of all things. To persevere with determination. Never give up. To show respect for all, no matter where they come from or who they are. And finally, to do what is right even when no one is watching,” he added.

Asiedu Nketiah added that he remains grateful for the impact his mother had on his life.
