They Forgot the Soldier Who Fought for the Flag” — A Touching Tribute to Hon. Daniel Atta-Kussi

Reported by Kakyire | Happy FM News Desk, Accra

In a moving piece that’s stirring emotions across Nkoranza and beyond, Happy FM’s Kakyire reports on the heartfelt tribute penned by Francis Appiah, a youth activist and policy analyst, celebrating the unwavering loyalty of Hon. Daniel Atta-Kussi a man many say gave everything for the NDC but has been left behind.

He walked through the storm when the battle drew near,
When others went silent, his courage was clear.
Through sleepless nights, through hunger and pain,
He carried Nkoranza upon his name.

He rallied the youth, he lifted the flag,
When hope was a whisper, he bore the tag.
He fought for the cause with passion and fire
Not for reward, but for Ghana’s desire.

When power was distant, he stayed on the ground,
When others retreated, his voice still resound.
He guarded the ballot, he suffered the blows,
The footprints of courage wherever he goes.

But now that the seats of reward are full,
They forget the man who once pulled the bull.
He bled for the cause, yet stands in the cold,
While others enjoy the silver and gold.

In an emotional close, Appiah writes:

“Remember this name Daniel Atta-Kussi,
A man whose loyalty was never fussy.
Let history speak, let conscience bother,
He suffered for the NDC… like my mother.” 🇬🇭🔥

Kakyire notes that this tribute is not just poetry it’s a political reminder of sacrifice, service, and forgotten heroes whose commitment shaped victory but whose names fade in the shadow of power.
