Accra, Ghana – March 2026
The Grassroots Alliance for Progress (GAP) reaffirms its unwavering commitment to member welfare, solidarity, and compassionate leadership following its active participation in the final funeral rites of the late mother of the Bono Regional Director, Comrade Gloria Adwoa Oppong Sarpomaa over the weekend.
In a strong show of unity and institutional support, the Association was officially represented by a high-level national delegation comprising:
Comrade Isaac Kwame Ngula Batun – National Director
Comrade Eric Nii Tetteh – Executive Secretary
Comrade Emmanuel K. Horla – National Welfare and Social Support Director
Comrade Wilhelmina Arthur Sibbele – National Welfare and Social Support Secretary
Comrade Nana Asamoah – National Strategic Affairs Director
As part of GAP’s structured welfare commitment, a financial donation of GHS 2,200 was presented to support the bereaved Comrade and her family during this difficult period.
This gesture is a reflection of GAP’s deeply rooted philosophy that an organization must stand firmly with its members not only in moments of progress, but also in times of grief and personal loss. It underscores the Association’s belief that true grassroots strength is built on compassion, shared responsibility, and collective care.
Beyond a ceremonial presence, GAP’s participation demonstrated a living example of what a functional and people-centered welfare system should represent one that provides timely support, emotional solidarity, and a sense of belonging to every member, regardless of circumstance.
The Association continues to strengthen its Welfare Scheme, designed to provide structured assistance to members in times of need, including bereavement, emergencies, and other social obligations. This initiative reflects GAP’s broader mission of building a supportive, responsive, and inclusive grassroots community.
GAP therefore encourages all members and the general public to appreciate the value of belonging to an organized and welfare-driven Association, where individuals are not left to face life’s challenges alone, but are supported by a united and disciplined network.
As the Association expands its presence across the nation, it remains committed to fostering a culture of care, unity, and collective progress, where every member matters and every contribution counts.
In moments like these, GAP is not just an organization; it is a family.
