Among the numerous messages expressing commiserations, following the death of President John Mahamas mother, the one from his daughter is perhaps the sweetest of them all.
Farida, who is eight years old, told her father; "Smile! You lost your mother, but you have me."
The message from the young Mahama to reassure the president and present a picture of hope, is a break away from the fairly rigid messages of condolence sent by older people.
Among those who have been sending their condolences have been former presidents Jerry Rawlings and John Kufour; NPP presidential candidate Nana Akufo-Addo and Black Stars captain Asamoah Gyan.
Aside the passing away of his mother, the President Mahama has had to deal with a growing controversy after it was revealed that a contractor who has won a number of government contracts gave the president a car; as a gift.
Abiba Nnaba, born 1931, will be buried in Bunusu in West Gonja on Friday.
