Special greetings, my dear friend and Comrade.
Respectfully, I wish to ask if you could spare just ten (10) minutes of your precious time to stand with me at Matetse, Dodowa, on Saturday, 10th February 2024, at 10 AM.

I will appreciate your 10 minutes by my side, as I honour a man who was a stark illiterate but had the vision to send me to school. He named me Owula (Scholar), and he followed up by boldly enrolling me in a private school for kids of the rich and wealthy, and paying my expensive fees of eight (8) cedis a month when he was earning a driver’s salary of twenty-four (24) cedis a month!!
Please, don’t underestimate what a miracle it is if you can read what I write. I trust you will surely join me for only 10 minutes to appreciate my father – Numo Foni Mangortey – who died of old age and will be laid to rest on 10th February 2024.
Kindly note that I will surely understand if you are unable to spare just 10 minutes of your time for me because of other more important and pressing commitment of your time on 10th February 2024.
I wish you well.
Owula Mangortey
Bawku
