Recall that after Akua Donkor died, friends and loved ones donated massively to show their love for the late politician.
It was reported that some of the donations were even rejected by the family. For instance, the then running mate of Akua Donkor, Roman Fada, gave her family GH¢15,000 as his contribution to the funeral. However, the family rejected the money.
In a recent interview, some family members also confirmed receipt of GH¢100,000 from the previous New Patriotic Party (NPP) government.
Speaking of how the money was spent, Akua Donkor's daughter claimed she never received or saw the donations for her mother's funeral and other expenses.
The young lady who spoke on Onua TV also alleged the money was not used for its intended purpose.
She claimed some family members hijacked the money and used it for their benefit and when she sought answers, she was told that the money had been used to renovate the family house.
She also claims the family members are demanding more money from her for the funeral, despite receiving the GH¢100,000 donation, and have asked her to go for a loan to finance the funeral.
