Mzbel praises Ofori Sarpong’s philanthropy

On May 2, the media personality appeared on United Showbiz on UTV and joined the panel in praising the businessman before his birthday.
She praised him as one of the few billionaires in Ghana who engages in philanthropy and described it as worthy of emulation.
“He is doing a lot, he is doing great things, at PRESEC, on social media, and on television, we see all he does. So I hope his benevolence sets an example for others to follow.

Whatever he yearns for on this earth, may God open the way for him to achieve it and more,” she added.
