Adisadel College, an all-boys Senior High School in Cape Coast, is set to welcome the 2008 year group (Santa ’08 Alumni) for a grand homecoming event from the 26th to the 28th of July. The exciting three-day event promises a mix of nostalgia, mentorship, and fun activities for the alumni and current students.
On Friday, July 26, the event kicks off at 1 pm with the arrival of the Santa ’08 Alumni.
The evening will light up with a bonfire and Jama night at 7 pm, offering a warm and festive atmosphere for everyone to reconnect and share memories. The day concludes with engaging board games at 9 pm, ensuring a relaxed and enjoyable night.
Saturday, July 27, begins at 10 am with a formal presentation to the school, highlighting the achievements and contributions of the Santa ’08 batch. Following this, at 10:20 am, alumni will engage in mentoring and career talks with the students, providing invaluable guidance and insights from their professional journeys.
The evening at 7 pm will be filled with entertainment, fostering a lively interaction between alumni and students.
Ending on Sunday, July 28, the Santa ’08 will attend the Anglican church service with the students at 7 am, setting a reflective and communal tone for the day. From 10 am to 12 pm, a unique ‘cement party’ will take place at the school’s dining hall.
The homecoming event wraps up at 1 pm with the departure of the alumni, leaving behind cherished memories and strengthened bonds.
Speaking to the President of Santa ’08 Nana Kwesi Coomson, he expressed his enthusiasm for the event, stating “This homecoming is a testament to the strong bond we share as Santa ’08. It’s a joy to return to our alma mater, contribute to its legacy and inspire current students with our experiences. We look forward to reconnecting, reminiscing and making a positive impact together.”
“We are privileged to also have the 2008 year group of the Mfantsiman Girls Senior High School participate in this homecoming. They will join us to mentor the current students as well as participate in other programmes of the homecoming,” Mr. Coomson added.
This homecoming event at Adisadel College is not just a reunion but a celebration of the enduring legacy and spirit of the Santa ’08 Alumni.
Attorney General and Minister for Justice, Dr. Dominic Ayine, has announced that the government has accepted the recommendation to abolish the death penalty and replace it with life imprisonment as part of the constitutional review process.
He said the proposed amendment would affect Articles 3, 13, 19 and 72 of the 1992 Constitution, with offences that previously attracted the death penalty instead carrying life imprisonment.
Dr. Ayine made the announcement on July 30, 2026, at the Jubilee House in Accra during the Government Accountability Series while outlining the government’s position on the final recommendations of the Constitution Review Committee.
According to him, the government believes the death penalty is inconsistent with the constitutional right to life and Ghana’s international human rights obligations.
He explained that the recommendation forms part of broader proposals aimed at strengthening the protection of fundamental human rights under the Constitution.
Dr. Ayine said the government had also accepted the spirit of several recommendations to expand rights relating to women, children, persons with disabilities, older persons and the youth.
He added that a comprehensive Human Rights Act would be introduced to protect these rights and provide detailed enforcement mechanisms instead of amending the entrenched provisions of the Constitution through a national referendum.
