International Model Remembers Kofi Ansah On His 1-year Anniversary After His Death

Its a year since Ghana's renowed fashion icon Kofi Ansah passed on into Glory due to a cardiac arrest. 
 
African Fashion Week London Ambassador and International model from Ghana, Victoria Michael who was discovered by the ace designer, has remembered the late Kofi Ansah in an open letter to mark his one year anniversary.
 
Kofi Ansah
Hse No 3 Gold street,
Light Avenue,
Heaven.

Dearest Kofi,

LETTER OF REMEMBRANCE
There is no need to inquire about your welfare, going by your latest address; you are most certainly in a better place. Kofi, we have all missed you, your transition took us all by surprise but we are grateful to God for a life well spent on this side of the Terra-Firma.

A lot have happened since the last time we met a little over one year ago. I remember how reassuring you sounded as I raised my concern regarding your health. As I sat on the edge of the bed watching you, I couldn’t help but wonder how strong you always are for the people around you.

Since you relocated to your now permanent address, a lot have been happening. I want to start by telling you some of the very notable ones; On the economic front, we are due to take delivery of the first batch of the IMF bailout, I know your Pan-African spirit would have disapproved of it and sure that by now you would be making mockery of your friends in government as to why Mother got here. I see your new residence is located at the Light Avenue, how interesting considering the extent of ceaseless power cut we now experience across the country. 

The “Dumsor” phenomenon has now eaten deeply into the very fabric of both our social and economic life. I know where you stood on economic empowerment for our people, not just in Ghana but for Africa in general. For instance, you have always insisted that the two major criteria needed to develop a country like Nigeria is corrupt less leadership and steady power supply; I hope we do not have to make such wishes for Ghana some years from now, I sincerely hope not.

Well, enough of economic talk, though I know how passionate you are about the economy and politics. Kofi, we all have missed you, I spoke with your dear wife a few days ago, she was very sweet, and from what I gathered from our conversation she really is trying her best to immortalize you, I couldn’t stop the tears from flowing down my eyes after our conversation.. 
Between the both of us, we believe that you are already immortalized in the heart of everyone that crossed your part. Kofi, who can ever forget you, you are simple yet so prolific, so pragmatic yet visionary, you came ahead of your time, touched many, helped your world, illuminated all that came your way. How can we possible forget this LEGEND that blazed the trail of the Africa Continent living inspiration on his heels?

Beloved Kofi, I want to thank you for your love, consistency, commitment and honesty towards me. You made sure I stayed focused on the goal, always insisted that “success is what happens when opportunity meets preparation” Indeed that is true. Your visionary leadership as a Fashion Icon transcends every field of human Endeavour. 
You are recognized as Africa true Fashion Statesman. I am proud to be associated with you and the legacy you left behind. My closeness to you left me a person than I was before I met you. I know you are proud of me but I am even more proud of you. We can never stop relishing on your undying legacies.

You are a true mentor, it was under your tutelage that the VICTORIA MICHAELS brand was birth; you actually succeeded in creating an emerging fashion brand from Africa. THANK YOU KOFI!

Presently, I am writing you this letter from a Part of Europe you often talk about when you go into that endless fashion and fabric rendition that only you can give. Being here and writing you come with a lot of mixed feelings…………… I am crying Kofi……………… I love you.

I celebrate one of Africa’s greatest gifts to the World

You are the True Champion of Africa Fashion

GOD BLESS YO, REMAIN AT PEACE.

Yvonne Nelson, Sarkodie & Others Hit The Streets Of Accra For #DumsorMustStop

After a week long voice out from Ghanaian movie and music celebrities on the current power failure in the country, the celebrities have decided to hit the streets to announce the displeasure of the situation.
 
A few politicians have had their opinions(bad and worse attacking personalities) on the views of the celebrities and the President of the land has also re-echoed his promise to end the challenge by the end of the year through his twitter account. 
 
Finally, the time has come for the celebrities to take their views from the social media platform to the streets.
 
#DumsorMustStop campaign as it is described is being championed by movie and music celebrities in Ghana. 
Actress Yvonne Nelson and Sarkodie have teamed up to organise a vigil for concerned Ghanaians to gather at the University of Ghana football field on May 16th and proceed peacefully to the Green park opposite the Villagio at the Tettey Quashie Interchange.
The event which will start around 5:00 pm is expected to be attended by over 500 Ghanaians. 
For more information on the event which comes off on Saturday, May 16th, 2015 call 0575415816 or 0204343431.
Yvonne Nelson writing on the vigil wrote “The #dumsormuststop vigil is on Saturday 16th May! Join me and other citizens of GHANA Strictly non-partisan. 
This is simply a discharge of your civic responsibility to God and country. This is for the many people who have lost their jobs because of dumsor. This is for the many people who have lost their lives because of dumsor.
This is for the school children who have to study with lanterns and torches to write exams. This is for the sick people at the hospitals who have to endure dumsor on their sick beds. This is for the many patients who are unable to receive efficient healthcare because of dumsor.
This is for you and I and the unborn generation of this great nation.

Its official we are holding the ‪#‎dumsormuststop‬ vigil. as you can see in the letter my lawyers have written to the Police and informed them of the vigil. Details are in the letter. I will be leading this myself with my friends.

You are all invited to join us. Come with your torch lights and candles and bobo etc we have to make our voices heard. #DumsorMustStop
