Meanwhile, the first lady gave a powerful caption to the photo she posted. She used the occasion to tell the story of how her life has been transformed, from the daughter of Africa’s first Commissioner of Income Tax to First Lady of Ghana.
”Here in this picture is a 20-year-old Rebecca Griffiths-Randolph. Unassuming, coy, and bustling in her post-teenage fickleness. Like many young girls around that age, I’m not sure I knew exactly what my life held for me”. Mrs Akufo Addo wrote.
”Yet the last four years have been humbling. I wake up every morning, adjusting to this charge of First lady; partnering a man not only for love but in deep service of our country – the first gentleman”.
”Today, I wonder what the 20-year-old Naa Okaikor understood of marriage and of service to country. Whether she ever imagined that she would become a First Lady. And that the nation’s love would be her love and the nation’s companion would be hers too and moreso, the nation’s worries”.
Fast forward, the first lady talked about the brilliant Student from Adeiso SHS who has been granted a scholarship by President Akufo Addo recently for getting all 8A’s in his WASSCE exams.
”And so more than ever, I feel married to politics; the kind that changes the life of a young Thomas Amoaning of Adeiso SHS who although walked 6 kilometres everyday to school never wavered in his ambition to become an Economist”. she added.
