YEN.com.gh previously reported that Ghana's First Lady Rebecca Akufo Addo turned 71 years old, but still looked as stunning as a woman who is only in her early 50s.

Posting a picture of the first lady and tagging her handle, Nana shared:
''Happy Birthday my beautiful Rebecca (@RAkufoAddo) ❤️❤️❤️.''
How Rebecca's 70th birthday was celebrated
In celebration of her milestone, First Lady Rebecca had a party organised in her name. A video from the birthday celebration of Mrs Akufo-Addo showed it was a party organised by a swimming pool.
In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh, the first lady was seen dressed in a lemon yellow dress, with almost everybody around dressed in white.
Not long into the video, Mrs Akufo-Addo got on the dancefloor to display good moves while the people around urged her on.
