An interview with Koku Anyidoho on Wontumi TV/Radio in Kumasi on Tuesday, ended abruptly when the one-time Communications Director at the presidency during the Atta Mills regime broke down in tears.
Koku who is currently the Chief Executive Officer of the Atta Mills Institute lost control of himself while explaining why he had to beg his party colleagues to be able to honour in a befitting manner, his former boss whose cause of death has generated a lot of controversies.
Emotionally-stricken Koku, apparently feeling rejected and abandoned by his own party people to single-handedly perpetuate the memory of the late President by erecting a monument could not be consoled. For about five minutes he chanted an old popular gospel tune, “In his time, in his time……..” as he sobbed uncontrollably.
In between his sobs and the emotional song delivery he still managed to deliver a message: “I’m not supposed to break down…. I beg to to be assisted to put up the Asomdowe Park in shape…… In God’s own time the monument at the Asomdowee Park will be constructed .I will build the Asomdwee Park.”
Touched by Koku Anyidoho’s unflinching loyalty to his late boss, Chairman Wontumi pulled a surprise. He made an unexpected intervention by pledging to donate 1000 bags of cement to help “the Atta Mills boy” fulfill his dream of honouring his former boss with a monument befitting of his status.
According to Chairman Wontumi, Professor Mills had a biological son in the person of Kofi Atta Mills but Koku Anyidoho proved to be a truer son of Mills. He pleaded to God give him somebody to love him too.
