The Mirror/Graphic Business Father’s Day buffet lunch at Oak Plaza

The Mirror and Graphic Business, will on June 16, celebrate the pivotal roles fathers play in the society at Oak Plaza Hotel, Accra.

Dubbed The Mirror/Graphic Business Special Father’s Day Buffet Lunch, the ticketed event is intended to bring fathers and father figures together under one umbrella to say a very big thank you to them as well as share and exchange ideas on how to promote good family principles.

The event on the theme: “The father as the head and leader” will offer a platform to build a generation of responsible fathers—sharing and exchanging ideas on relationships, fatherhood, savings and how to build financial capabilities as a father to cater for the family.

The lunch will be interspersed with short presentations by renowned motivational speaker, Uncle Ebo Whyte of Roverman Productions, Mr Alhassan Andani, Managing Director of Stanbic Bank and Rev. Dr. Anthony Cudjoe of the International Central Gospel Church, Calvary Temple.

Pastor Nii Okai also will minister at the event.

Memorable experience

Throwing more light on the event, Mr Franklin Sowa, Director of Marketing and Sales of the Graphic Communications Group Limited (GCGL), said this year’s event would offer participants a memorable experience.

According to him, there had been a wrong impression about a lot of fathers due to the irresponsible behaviour some had exhibited over the years “but with platforms such as The Mirror/Graphic Business Special Father’s Day Buffet Lunch, the impressions are gradually changing.”

“What fathers are looking out for is to increase their love and live up to their God-given responsibilities,” he said.

Mr Sowa indicated that the speakers of the event had worth of experience in relationships, family matters and finance that would help patrons.

“As a responsible media organisation, we want to create platforms that will empower fathers financially to be able to cater for their family.

“Men do not typically open up. But with platforms such as this, an environment will be created to help them open up and share and exchange ideas. Through this programme, we will be celebrating fathers in a unique way,” he stated.

He called on Ghanaians to show interest and appreciate their fathers on all occasions since they are important figures in the society.

Mr Sowa wished all fathers a happy Father’s Day in advance and added that there would be giveaways for patrons of the event.
