Undoubtedly, the finest First Lady in the fourth republic so far. At her age she saw it all and therefore knew what she was about. No for once did we hear she was interfering in matters of government. At 87 she has paid her dues. To former president kufour, please take heart, it is not easy losing a loved one but you don't have control. Your only consolation is to listen to what William Shakespeare said in his book " Julius Caesar " where Caesar is reported to have said ' death is a necessary end and will come when it will come ' . We wish she could stay much longer but who are we to question God when he decides. We can only wish Mama Theresa a peaceful rest in the bossom of the lord. My deepest condolences to former president John Agyekum Kufour and the bereaved family.
