Gospel Musicians Unite in Song to Bid KODA Farewell in an Emotional Send-Off

According to a publication by Ghanaweb, veteran Ghanaian gospel musicians united to perform a touching musical tribute, ushering him to his final resting place.

The report mentioned that the service saw a massive turnout of notable gospel artists, each taking part in individual performances that honoured KODA’s legacy.

However, the pinnacle of the day was when the musicians took the stage together to perform a soul-stirring rendition of KODA’s beloved song, Yesu Adi Nkunim.

Taking turns to lead the powerful anthem, the group of musicians, led by veteran gospel legend Elder Mireku, delivered a deeply emotional performance.

At times, they harmonized in unison, filling the room with reverence as the pallbearers gently lifted the casket. As the procession for internment began, a group of trumpeters joined in, guiding KODA’s family and friends as they followed the procession to the private burial.

The gospel community showed up in full force to pay their respects to KODA, with notable figures such as Joe Mettle, Uncle Ato, Ceccy Twum, Mary Ghansah, Sonnie Badu, Daughters of Glorious Jesus, Eugene Zuta, Francis Amo, Diana Hamilton, Nii Okine, Akese Brempong, and Elder Mireku in attendance.

The solemn all-white funeral took place on Friday, September 20, 2024, at the Kingsway International Christian Centre (KICC) Dominion Centre on Spintex Road in Accra.

After the emotional tribute, KODA was laid to rest in a private burial, marking the end of a remarkable life dedicated to gospel music and ministry.
