In her tribute at the final funeral rites ceremony at the Accra International Conference Centre on Friday, July 27, she said: "Over the last few weeks, I have been amazed at the number of people who have come to show appreciation and I ask myself: ‘Is this Ghana?’ Are all these people in Ghana because of the maligning, the lies, the treachery, the wickedness, the mischievousness?

"I ask myself: Is this Ghana? I ask myself is this my own husband that you have come to say tribute to? And today, I ask the same question: Did people really know my husband? Did they take time to know him? The false accusations, the lies the maligning, did they know him? My dearest Kwesi, your children and I knew you and we cherish you."

Some Ghanaians took to Twitter to praise her, in an obvious rebuke of the adversarial nature of the Ghanaian politics.

"Matilda Amissah-Arthur hitting the nail right in the head," a Twitter user wrote.
