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.”
