NTC mourn Agnes Ofosu Antwi

It was a solemn atmosphere as the New Times Corporation held the one week observance last week Friday for the late Mrs Agnes Ofosu Antwi at the forecourt of the premises.

The late Mrs. Agnes Ofosu Antwi was with the Marketing Department and served the Corporation for 41 years.

She died on February, 9, 2022,  at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, Accra.

Very Rev. Dr Samuel Dua Dodd, Superintendent Minister Accra North Circuit of the Methodist Church of Ghana in a sermon from Psalm 90, told Christians to reflect on their lives and leave good legacies because “we would one day leave this earth”.

He further explained that everyone had a mission to accomplish on earth no matter the circumstance we found ourselves and there was the need to beware of the things we did with our lives.

“In order to live a life to glorify the Lord, we must continue to obey the commandments and directions of God”, he stressed.

Rev. Dodd encouraged the bereaved families to take comfort in the Lord as the deceased was resting in the bosom of Abraham.

In an address, the Managing Director of the New Times Corporation, Mr. Martin Adu Owusu could not hold back his tears when he was describing the Late Mrs Agnes Ofosu Antwi as hard working and gregarious (sociable).

He recounted that even before he wasn’t enstooled as a chief, the deceased had started called him Nana.

He assured the bereaved family members that the Corporation would continue to support them during and after her burial, and urged the members of staff to live in peace and harmony and work hard for the corporation.

Chairman of the Professional and Management Staff Union ( PMSU), Madam Diana Bosuh in a tribute described the Late Mrs Agnes Ofosu Antwi as a selfless, hardworking person who was ready to give an ear to anyone who came in to contact with her.

“She is a unionist and it is our prayer that she continues to rest in peace” she added.

Final funeral rites will be held on the 11^th and 12 of March 2022 in Accra.
