Western Togoland leader ‘Papavi Hogbedetor’ laid to rest

Mr Charles Kormi Kudjordjie, leader of Homeland Study Group Foundation (HSGF), a separatist group in the Volta region fighting for independence, has been laid to rest in his hometown at Xavi within the Akatsi South Municipality.

The 88-year-old retired teacher, a historian, anthropologist, educationist, author, and a musician, was given a befitting burial by members of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, Ghana where he was a member, as well as relatives and people from all walks of life.

In a tribute, the children of the late freedom fighter described their father as someone who never quit at anything and “would push and fight until he saw results.”

“Daddy was a good educationist, very good composer, He has removed the barrier of fear before us,” the statement read.

The Evangelical Presbyterian (EP) Church also described the late educationist as an individual, who contributed to the growth of the Church, especially with his musical background.
