Top politicians from the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the biggest opposition party, the National Democratic Congress (NDC), were present at the final funeral rites of Daniel Obeng, the father of musician A Plus, held at Gomoa Pomadze in the Gomoa Central District of the Central region.
In attendance to grieve with Kwame A Plus were former trade minister Alan Kyerematen and National Democratic Congress (NDC) communication officer Sammy Gyamfi.
In a post shared on Facebook, on Thursday, July 13, 2023, A Plus said that his dad died in the United States of America (US) after a short illness.
He said that he spoke to his dad, who is known as Dan, on Wednesday and promised to visit him in the US on Friday, July 14, 2023.
“Yesterday, I had a long conversation with my father. We spoke about politics and my cousin who has died of cancer in the US and is yet to be buried. I promised to see him on Friday and he said “don’t forget to bring some of the brown rice.”
“This morning I woke up to many missed calls from family members. Just as I was about to return some of the calls, my cousin called to inform me that my father popularly known as Dan, died at dawn after he fell sick and was being rushed to the hospital. Just like that,” parts of the post read.
