The Takoradi Masquerade Carnival is one of the highlights of Christmas festivities in the Western Region.
Thousands of people throng the major streets of the region’s capital adorned in their fanciful masquerade attires ready to jam with brass band music.
This year’s edition was no different. As anticipated, many individuals from far and near participated in the carnival tradition, and among the many celebrants was the Western Regional Minister Kwabena Okyere Darko-Mensah.
Born and bred in Takoradi, Kwabena Okyere Darko-Mensah, has always taken part in the colourful event.
But this year, as the brass band played their variety music, Mr Darko-Mensah could not help but join the masqueraders to display some good legwork.
In his carnival attire which has ‘Hon Kobby’ inscribed in it, the Minister’s dance earned him accolades from spectators around.
