KRIF Ghana Limited begins ‘branded safe’ donation to institutions
Krif Ghana Limited, as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility, is on a mission to donate 52 branded safes to selected institutions across the country.
The initiative according to the company is to ensure every office owns a safe for proper protection and keeping of office documents and valuables.
Small, medium and large safes with enhanced features, including fireproof, waterproof and burglar proof features would be donated until November, 9, 2022.
Rev. Kennedy Okosun, Executive Chairman, Krif Ghana, launching the initiative last Tuesday in Accra, said at least one safe would be presented each week to an identified institution until the programme lapsed.
“This exemplary initiative is the company’s support to the work of commendable public and private institutions, and also to show gratitude to the Ghanaian public for keeping faith with Krif Ghana.
“Some of these safes would be donated to organisations nominated by Sales and Customer Service staff of Krif Ghana Limited, while the remaining majority would be the nominations by individuals, organisations and the public,” he said.
The company said there would be an online nomination platform where the public could nominate eligible institutions across all sixteen regions and 261 districts of Ghana.
“The general public must be informed that, this is not a raffle or game of chance. Krif Ghana shall not be directly involved in the beneficiaries’ selection process in order to ensure transparency and free and fair selection process,” Rev Okosun stressed.
The company said organisations that are nominated but did not end up as beneficiaries of the free safes, would be granted the opportunity to buy their choice of safes at a 10 per cent discount at Krif Ghana outlets across the country.

Ghana’s parliament has marked the 2nd edition of May Day 2026 under the theme “ Welcome Home”.
It was special day meant to celebrate the invaluable support of the workforce, recognizing the commitment, resilience, and contributions of workers to institutional growth and national development.
Delivering the message on behalf of the Speaker, the 1st Deputy Speaker, Bernard Ahiafor, described the theme as very apt, appropriate, and timely, noting that Parliament is more than a workplace, it is a shared home.
He emphasized that we cannot speak about work without speaking about people, reminding everyone that the true measure of our work is the well-being of our people.
He urged that our traditional clothing become an integral part of our everyday clothing, and that our local languages must become integral to our daily lives, interwoven into education and practiced at home.
Referencing Standing Order 63, which captures the use of local language as optional in deliberations, he encouraged a renewed commitment to identity, saying it is significant that we “come home” and present who we are so future generations can inherit a story they can fully tell.
The Clerk, Mr. Ebenezer Ahumah Djietror, in his remarks commended officers for their dedication and devotion to duty, calling on them to go the extra mile and leave legacies.
Echoing the reminder that an unexamined life is not worth living, he described the event as an invitation to reconnect with our roots through cultural revival.
The Deputy Clerk, C&FMS, Dr. Gloria Sarku Kumawu, urged all not to forget their roots, the people behind the stories of ministries, industries, and the strides made both in-house and beyond.
What began last year has now become a meaningful tradition, showcasing Ghanaian heritage, fostering unity, and encouraging innovation under the principle of diversity for unity and diversity for progress, she added.
The gathering brought together leadership, public officials, and staff across all levels, along with the media, standing as a unifying platform that honored service, celebrated culture, and reaffirmed a shared commitment to national development.

Manhyia would serve as Ghana’s unifying force …Otumfuo assures on commemoration of 27 years on the Golden Stool
The Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, last Friday celebrated his 27th enstoolment with a colourful and culture-rich ceremony at the Manhyia Palace in Kumasi, drawing a distinguished gathering of dignitaries from across Ghana and beyond.
Clad in splendid kente and adorned in rich traditional regalia, the dignitaries added colour and elegance to the occasion, as the palace grounds came alive with a vibrant display of Ghanaian culture.
Traditional drumming, dancing and symbolic rites underscored the deep-rooted heritage of the Ashanti Kingdom, captivating guests and reaffirming the value of tradition in modern society.
Speaking at a high-level Executive Gala organised by the Diaspora Affairs Office of the Office of the President in strategic partnership with the E ON 3 Group, the ‘World-Meets-in-Ghana’ gala, the Asantehene urged Ghanaians to guard against the divisive tendencies of partisan politics.
The event was to honour the Asantehene’s nearly three-decade reign under the theme ‘Advancing Peace and Sustainable Economic Development through Royal Vision’.
Otumfuo Osei Tutu II noted that such attitudes threatened the country’s long-standing values of unity, civility and brotherliness.
He assured that Manhyia would continue to serve as a unifying force for the nation.
The celebration also featured the presentation of commemorative gold coins to notable national leaders, including the President, John Dramani Mahama, former Presidents John Agyekum Kufuor and Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo as well as Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, a former Vice President in recognition of their contributions to peace and national development.
