My name is Joseph Opoku Onyinah Afawuah
I am ten years of old
I was named after you, Apostle Prof. Opoku Onyinah
I am blessed to bear your name.
Many children and young adults are blessed to bear your name;
for you have made a good and a blessed name
It is said, “Onipa papa na yeto no badin”
It is also said, “Good name is better than riches”
Your love for children and young adults is immeasurable
You have lived exemplary, holy and righteous life;
You have made a good name by imitating Christ with a zealous heart
Your legacy to generations will forever remain:
Money and wealth could not erode your integrity
Power and fame could not corrupt your name
Women could not stain your priestly garment
For you are a godly leader;
You have impacted your generation
God is proud of your name
The world is proud of your name
The church is proud of your name
Ghana is proud of your name
Children and the youth are proud of your name
We, the children named after you are highly proud of you
We shall put our feet in your godly steps,
To make your good name live on, generations after generations after generations
Nana, ayekooooooooo
May your God be with you! Amen.
