You were the best of husbands any wife could pray for - KODA's wife pays tribute

Ewurama Dua Anto, the wife of the late Ghanaian gospel musician Kofi Owusu Dua Anto, commonly known as KODA, has shared a heartfelt reflection on her husband’s life and legacy after his passing in April this year.

The celebrated gospel artist, who was a major figure in Ghana’s Christian music scene, was laid to rest on Friday, September 20, in a ceremony that saw the presence of many gospel music icons and loved ones.

Ewurama took time to recall the many cherished memories she had with her husband, reflecting on the close bond they developed over the years.

She highlighted the special relationship KODA had with their children and the immense love and care he provided for the family.

Throughout their time together, they faced many joyful and challenging moments, which only brought them closer.

Despite the pain of losing him, she feels blessed to have shared such an enduring relationship with a man of KODA’s character.

KODA was not only a devoted husband but also an exemplary father, admired by his family for his dedication. Ewurama expressed immense gratitude for the love and guidance he provided both at home and within the wider community.

His role as a father was something she believed their children would always treasure, and his legacy of kindness and support would continue to resonate through them.

Ewurama’s words underscored the kind of person KODA was, not just to his family, but to everyone who knew him.

Beyond his role in the family, KODA’s impact on the gospel music industry and his service to the Christian faith were central themes in Ewurama’s reflection.

She expressed confidence that his work within the gospel music world would continue to inspire many and that his contributions would help draw more people closer to God.

She viewed his passing as part of a larger purpose and believed that through his music, his mission of spreading the message of Christ would live on.

His devotion to faith was unwavering, and Ewurama expressed her trust that KODA was in a better place, still playing his part in the spiritual journey he had always been passionate about.

In the face of grief, Ewurama remains comforted by her faith, trusting that she and KODA will one day be reunited.

Though deeply missed by his family and friends, she finds peace in knowing that KODA’s memory will continue to live on through the lives he touched.

As a man of deep spiritual conviction, KODA’s journey through life was always guided by his faith in God, something Ewurama holds on to during this difficult time.

She remains strong in the belief that, though he has passed, KODA’s spirit will continue to inspire hope, love, and faith.

KODA, who passed away in April at the age of 45, left behind a strong legacy in the gospel music industry, with songs such as “Nsempii,” “Nkwa Abodoo,” “Yapai,” and “Adorso” becoming household names.

His contribution to gospel music in Ghana was celebrated during his burial service, which took place at the Kingsway International Christian Centre in Spintex.

The event was attended by a number of prominent gospel artists, including Joe Mettle, Nacee, Elder Mireku, Sonnie Badu, and Diana Hamilton, who came together to honor his memory.

The solemn ceremony was a testament to the impact KODA had on both the gospel music scene and the lives of those who knew him personally.

The outpouring of love and respect at the event showed the extent of his influence, not only as a musician but as a man of faith who lived a life of purpose and dedication.

His legacy will undoubtedly continue to inspire future generations of gospel musicians and believers alike.

“I will always bless the day I met you. We shared both happy and sad moments that forged a bond between us that words cannot fully express. You were the best of husbands any wife could pray for and the best of fathers any child could wish for. You were a good man, my sweet. I am forever grateful to God that I found you.”

“As believers, we rejoice knowing you are alive in heaven. Praise be to Jesus who died to give us eternal life, knowing that one day we will all be together again. Till we meet again, sweetie, we will miss you. But I am comforted by the hope that we shall once again see your walk, hear your talk, and enjoy your smile. Rest in perfect peace, my love.”
