Senior Executives of Telecel Ghana have paid an annual New Year’s courtesy visit to the Manhyia Palace in Kumasi to extend warm wishes to the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II.

The visit, a long-standing tradition, saw Telecel Ghana’s executives present their respects to the revered Ashanti monarch as well as seek his support and guidance for the new year.  

The delegation was led by Chief Executive Officer, Patricia Obo-Nai, along with the Head of Foundation, Sustainability and External Communications, Rita Agyeiwaa Rockson and the Executive Head for the Ashanti Region, Kwaku Asiedu.

Ing. Obo-Nai conveyed Telecel Ghana’s continued commitment to strengthening the existing relationship with Asantehene and the people of the Ashanti Region.

“We are grateful for the longstanding support, guidance and blessings we have received from Otumfuo and the Manhyia Palace leadership over the years. We remain committed to the partnership with Asanteman for mutual growth and development."

Receiving the delegation at the Manhyia Palace, His Majesty Otumfuo Osei Tutu II said he was grateful for the courtesy visit and the enduring partnership with the telco over the years.

Otumfuo Osei Tutu II also commended Ing. Obo-Nai for her leadership and called for more investment to grow the business.

One of the major areas of partnership is the annual Asantehene Golf Tournament, with its 68^th edition set to take place later this year.

The golf tournament brings together amateur and professional golfers to compete in the championships.

As the headline sponsor for seven consecutive years, Telecel Ghana assured Asantehene of its consistent support for the golf tournament.

Beyond golf, Telecel Ghana dedicates an entire month, known as Ashanti Month, to rewarding its customers in the region, engaging local businesses, supporting community health and celebrating the rich culture and history of the Ashanti region.

The visit underscores the strong bond between the telecommunications company and the Ashanti Kingdom, and it marks another year of collaboration aimed at driving positive change in the region.
