YAA ABOAGYEWA HUNT-THOMAS OKOMFO GRADUATION
From Nana Afua Badu:
I am pleased to announce the upcoming graduation
of my daughter Okomfowaa Yaa (Yaayaa) Nyo. She has been on a spiritual
journey filled with many ups and downs but she has stood strong
through them all. She will be traveling to Ghana next month to graduate
as an Okomfo (Priestess) to Nana Esi Ketewaa. In getting ready for her
trip she has one more challenge to overcome. She is requesting the
assistance from all of her family members and friends to help her raise
the money that she needs to send to Ghana to pay for all of the items
that she will need to graduate. No amount is to small. She says medase
in advance for all of your assistance.
