Ofori said the gathering will allow the church community to mark the milestone and celebrate the late Apostle's contributions to both the mission and to Ghana's broader industrial and religious landscape.

Apostle Kwadwo Safo Kantanka built a reputation as one of Ghana's most distinctive public figures, combining his role as the head of the Kristo Asafo Mission with a sustained drive to advance indigenous innovation and manufacturing in the country.

Will Akofena and Adwo Safo attend?

When asked during the interview whether the late Apostle Kantanka's children would be present at the occasion, Ofori confirmed that invitations had been extended to them.

However, he was measured in his response, stating that he could not speak on their behalf regarding whether they would ultimately attend.

The programme was organised by the church, and Ofori indicated that the mission's primary focus remains on providing members with an opportunity to come together in remembrance of their founder one year on from his death.
