The Talensi Youth Association in the Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolis and its environs have donated 20 chairs to Christ the King Catholic Church at Effiakuma in the Sekondi-Takoradi Diocese of the Western Region.
The President of the association, Mr. Baba Akalarke said it was in appreciation of the Parish Priest, Rev Friar Vitus E. Mensah granting them the permission to use the church premises for their monthly meetings.
He said when members came for meetings they sat on chairs provided by the church and these chairs would wear down with time so the donation was the association’s widow’s mite to replace the worn-out chairs with the new ones.
Mr. Akalarke told the Parish Priest that the association was very young but they would continue to support the church in their own small way.
Rev Friar Mensah on behalf of the Friars, the Parish Pastoral Council and the entire Christ the King Family thanked the association for the gesture.
He said not all people showed appreciation in return for kindness or service rendered adding” but as the association has come out on their own volition, we are grateful because this is a gift from your hearts”.
He said anybody who remembered a friend during difficult times in this era of VOVID-19 pandemic was a very good friend and the church would continue to pray for the members of the Talensi Youth Association for it to grow bigger.

About 120 golfers from clubs across Ghana participated in an 18-hole competition, dubbed ‘MTN 30th Anniversary CEO Invitational Golf Tournament’ held at the Achimota Golf Club on Saturday.
At the end of the hectic day, Frederick Semenu Duvor won the Men’s Group A event with 39 points, while Julienne Afi claimed the Ladies’ Group A title with the same score.
Yaw Mireku Jnr. won the Men’s Group B with an impressive 45 points, while Kous Louanges Mang took the Ladies’ Group B title with 38 points.
Kofi Mangesi won Men’s Group C with 40 points while Elorm R. Akuash Bonney claimed the Ladies’ version with 42 points.
In the Seniors Division, Jan Vogel emerged winner of the men’s category with 39 gross, while Helen Appah topped the ladies’ category with 44 gross.
Addressing participants, the company’s Board Chairman, Mr Ishmael Yamson, urged the company to approach its next phase with the same resilience, discipline and determination that have defined its success over the past three decades.
He drew a striking parallel between the game of golf and MTN Ghana’s three-decade journey, describing both as long games in which success depends less on one spectacular moment than on consistency, patience, judgment and the ability to recover from setbacks.
He said, golf had taught him a lesson that extended far beyond the fairways, thus, a round cannot be won on the first hole.
In golfing terms, he said, MTN Ghana had encountered its share of regulatory bunkers, competitive hazards and unexpected storms that had forced the company to pause, reassess and change its approach.
But those challenges, he suggested, were part of the journey rather than reasons to abandon it.
