The Chairman of the First Sky Group of Companies, Mr Eric Seddy Kutortse and four other persons were last weekend awarded at the dedication of the Trinity Temple Capacity Chapel of the Assemblies of God Church Ghana at Tema in the Greater Accra Region.
The others were Mrs Florence Adjeley Larbi, Project Finance Committee Chairperson, Reverend Dr Slyvanus Elorm, Head Pastor of Trinity Temple, and Mr George Patrick Bediaku, Project Structural Engineer and Niifio Kotei, Project Architect.
They were presented with citations for their commitment to ensuring the completion of the building project.
Mr Kutortse on behalf of his colleagues said they were thankful to the leadership of the church for honouring them.
The Chairman said the company had constructed 72 churches across the country especially in the Volta and Eastern regions, stressing their commitment to construct three of such edifice every year in the other regions.
The 800 seating capacity edifice has facilities such as conference room, board room, prayer tower,offices, first aid room, library, canteen, wash rooms, interpreters’ cubicles and car parks.
The building project was funded by the congregation of the church and completed within a year-and-a-half.
The programme which commemorated the 16th Anniversary Celebration of the chapel was attended by dignitaries including the Acting Chief Justice, Mr Justice Victor Jones Dotse and Justice Mrs Gertrude Torkornoo, Justice of the Supreme Court Ghana and Chief Justice Nominee.
The others were Reverend Paul Frimpong Manso, President of the Frimpong Manso Institute.
The General Superintendent of the Assemblies of God Church Ghana, Reverend Dr Stephen Yenusom Wengam preaching on the topic “The Spirit of Holiness” urged church members to be holy and devoid of sin.
Rev Dr. Yenusom said Christians must reflect the holiness of God. Our lives must reflect holiness or this building would be meaningless.”
Rev Frimpong-Manso also commended the Head Pastor of the chapel, Rev Dr Slyvanus Amegasgiti Elorm and the congregation for their dedication in putting up the building.
He urged them to cultivate the culture of maintenance to protect the edifice.
In a brief history of the chapel, Rev Dr Elorm said they started operating in a classroom block with eight members but currently has 550 members comprising 350 adults and 200 children.
He thanked God for His guidance and support in enabling them to execute the assignment on time.
“From a single classroom to 800-seating capacity ultra-modern auditorium is the doing of the Lord and we want to say thank you to Him,” he added.

The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has taken note of public allegations of extortion and related conduct made against the Minority Leader of Parliament, Alexander Afenyo-Markin.
The allegations were made by the Chief Executive of the Ghana Gold Board (GoldBod), Sammy Gyamfi.
In a brief statement, the OSP said it has also received a joint petition submitted by two persons, as well as two separate petitions from other persons, in relation to the same allegations.
“Given the nature of the allegations, the OSP will assess the case and determine whether it falls within its statutory mandate and whether further investigative action is warranted,” the statement said.
The development comes amid a heated public feud between the Minority in Parliament and the leadership of GoldBod over the operations of the Domestic Gold Purchase Programme.
The Minority, led by Afenyo-Markin, has accused GoldBod and the Bank of Ghana of causing a loss of over $1.7 billion, citing the International Monetary Fund’s August 2026 report. The Minority has vowed to pursue the matter as Parliament has reconvened for an emergency sitting.
GoldBod, on the other hand, has rejected claims by some NPP MPs, including Tano South MP Dr Gideon Boako, that it owes the Bank of Ghana GH¢1 billion in overdrafts, describing the claim as “false and malicious.”
In the latest twist, GoldBod CEO Sammy Gyamfi has accused the Minority Leader of extortion and related conduct, an allegation that has triggered petitions to the OSP.
The OSP is mandated under Act 959 to investigate and prosecute specific cases of alleged or suspected corruption and corruption-related offences involving public officers and politically exposed persons.

General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Justin Kodua Frimpong, has filed his nomination to contest the position of General Secretary again as the party begins its rebuilding efforts ahead of the 2028 general elections.
He was accompanied by party stalwarts and supporters who were in high spirits, expressing confidence that he is the right person to hold the position.
Speaking after filing his nomination, Mr Kodua Frimpong assured the rank and file of the party that he would not disappoint them.
“I can assure you that the faith the rank and file of the party have had in me, I will never disappoint them,” he said.
He also pledged to run a clean campaign devoid of personal attacks.
“I can assure you that our internal campaign will be devoid of personal attacks,” he told his fellow contestants and the rank and file of the party as he seeks to retain his position.
His tenure has seen the party through the 2024 general elections, where the NPP lost power to the National Democratic Congress (NDC) after eight years in government.
The party is currently in a rebuilding phase, with internal elections scheduled to elect new national executives to lead its reorganization towards the 2028 polls.
The General Secretary position is considered one of the most influential in the party’s administrative structure, responsible for the day-to-day running of the party secretariat and implementation of party decisions.
