Members of the Wonadem UBA Foundation (WUBAF) joined mourners and sympathizers on Saturday, 8th August, 2026 at Akatsi-Atorkorkorfe to bid a final farewell to Mr. Ben Wede Yao Atorkor, the beloved father of Mr. Saviour Atorkor, a valued member of the Foundation.

The funeral service was held in an atmosphere of solemnity, unity, and celebration of life.

Members began arriving as early as 7:00am, with attendance continuing until 11:00am. The church service commenced around 9:00am and was marked by heartfelt tributes, prayers, and music.

A moment was observed to allow family, friends, and well-wishers to pay their last respects to the deceased. Invited guests were duly introduced before the reading of scripture set the tone for the service.

The biography of Mr. Atorkor was read by representatives of the family, including his wife, children, in-laws, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and the church. The life story highlighted his legacy of love, service, and family values.

The offertory followed, led by the WUBAF Brass Band, whose melodious ministration added a reverent tone to the service. A powerful sermon was delivered by the church pastor, after which a special prayer was said for the bereaved family.

In honor of our colleague, WUBAF was called upon to perform during the service, showcasing the Foundation’s solidarity with the Atorkor family.

The church service concluded at exactly 1:20pm.

Following the service, WUBAF members joined other mourners for refreshments and networking, strengthening bonds of fellowship and mutual support.

The Foundation led a Borborbor performance — a vibrant cultural tribute that celebrated the life of the departed while uplifting the spirits of those present.

The entire program came to a close at 4:20pm with a final prayer led by Love Afanu, after which guests and members departed.

The Wonadem UBA Foundation extends its deepest condolences to Mr. Saviour Atorkor and the entire Atorkor family. May the soul of Mr. Ben Wede Yao Atorkor rest in perfect peace.
