The Management of Mensah Sarbah Hall (MSH) has paid a courtesy call on the family of the late John Mensah Sarbah, in Cape Coast. This visit is part of the Hall’s effort to strengthen ties with the late Statesman’s family.
Dr. Roger Atinga, Master of Mensah Sarbah Hall, took advantage of the occasion to invite the family to the Hall’s 60th Anniversary celebrations and the unveiling of the John Mensah Sarbah Statue. He also thanked the family for their continuous support in the Hall’s activities.
“This year, we are going to mark the 60th Anniversary of the Hall and a grand launch will be held on Friday 17th February 2023. The John Mensah Sarbah Statue will be unveiled in front of the Hall during the launch, and the Vice President of Ghana, among other dignitaries, will be present. There will also be a series of programmes commemorating the anniversary throughout the year until October. We would like to take advantage of this opportunity to invite the entire family to this memorable event,” Dr Atinga disclosed.
He outlined some developmental projects that Management plans to undertake in the Hall, for which they intend to leverage on the anniversary celebrations to solicit support from various stakeholders, to improve the lives of residents.
The family was welcoming of all the initiatives and assured the delegation of their full support and participation in all the Hall’s projects and events.
The family then led the delegation to the late John Mensah Sarbah’s grave.
