Gospel singer Joe Mettle has expressed profound grief over the death of his colleague, Kofi Owusu Dua Anto, affectionately called KODA.
According to Mr. Mettle, it has been a difficult experience, given the friendship they both shared until KODA’s demise.
Speaking on Joy Prime’s Changes show, the singer told Roselyn Felli, who asked about how he felt upon receiving the news of his colleague’s death, that “it was a difficult moment and still is.”
He continued that, although the musician is gone forever, reminiscing about moments makes him feel as if KODA is still alive.
“Sometimes we’re still living in denial about the fact that maybe he’s still around. Once in a while you have the awareness that he really is gone,” he reiterated.
Mr. Mettle has faith that the departure of the ‘Hossana’ hitmaker is the will of God, believing that KODA is resting peacefully in God’s bosom.
Meanwhile, the final funeral rites for the late singer are scheduled for Friday, September 20, at KICC Dominion Center, off Spintex Road.
All fans and sympathizers are encouraged to join the family as they bid their beloved one farewell.
