The enstoolment ceremony, held on Sunday at the Ga Mantsɛ Stool House in Accra, conferred upon Nunoo Mensah the title “Nii Kojo Ashiefie Papanyira I” in recognition of his significant contributions to sports and national development.

As Nɔyaa Mantsɛ, Mr. Nunoo Mensah, who is also a Director of Barari DV Ghana Lithium Concession, will support the completion of key development projects initiated by the Ga Mantsɛ, King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, in the Ga State.

The colourful event attracted dignitaries from the sports community, traditional leaders, and government officials.

King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II commended Nii Kojo Ashiefie Papanyira I for his unwavering commitment to promoting sports and youth development in Ghana.
