“We Will Sink Our Feet Into Your Footsteps” - A Legacy of Strength and Service
In a heartfelt tribute filled with emotion, the children of the late Former First Lady, Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings, expressed a powerful vow: “We will sink our feet into your footsteps.” These words capture not only their grief, but their deep commitment to continue the mission of a woman who spent her life advocating tirelessly for women, youth, and national development.
Nana Konadu was more than the wife of former President Jerry John Rawlings she was a visionary in her own right. As a founding voice behind the 31st December Women’s Movement, she championed women’s empowerment across Ghana, focusing on education, financial independence, and grassroots leadership. Her work helped transform thousands of lives, planting seeds that continue to blossom long after her passing.
Her children’s tribute speaks to a generational transfer of responsibility. It is not simply remembrance it is inheritance. They stand today as living extensions of the values she instilled: discipline, resilience, patriotism, and service to community.
As the nation reflects on her life, one thing becomes clear: great legacies do not end they continue through the footsteps of those willing to walk the path.
Nana Konadu’s journey reshaped parts of Ghana’s social fabric, and now her children and the wider society she influenced carry that torch forward.
Her legacy lives on.
Her footsteps continue.
And generations will follow.
