“You made Christianity feel so real as it is. Your songs teach us to be patient while waiting on God. The hosts of Heaven await to welcome you home for a great work done.”
Elikem Pro stated:
“You are alive today not by any grace but because your time is not yet up. Every second that passes brings you closer to your grave.”
Nana Baah indicated:
“Aww, hmm. The day I heard about the demise of Maame Tiwa, one who took care of him, I told myself Wofa Yaw will never see the end of 2026. O God, we have lost a great legend.”
George Mintah added:
“Owuo deɛ ɔnnim fɛreɛ, owuo selection nnyɛ koraa; The son of the land is gone; he had dreams for tomorrow, plans for next week, next month, next year, and even the next five years; but now he belongs to eternity. Life is scary, full of unfulfilled ambitions, life is a mystery. One moment we laugh, the next seconds we are mourning. So I ask you, did I wrong you? Let’s talk, let’s forgive. The grudges, the hate, the pride won’t save us.”
