The Ghana Export-Import Bank (Ghana EXIMBank) has commissioned the Awoamefia Togbi Sri III Astro Turf Park at Hogbe Park in Anloga, underscoring its commitment to community development through corporate social responsibility.The commissioning ceremony drew traditional leaders, government officials, and residents, with the Awoamefia of Anlo State, Togbi Sri III, and the Awadada of Anlo Dukor, Togbui Agbesi Awusu II, in attendance.The Chief Executive of Ghana EXIMBank, Sylvester Adinam Mensah, explained the rationale behind the project: “Hogbe Park has a place in the memory of this community. It has hosted games, events, and gatherings over many years. However, a facility can only serve its purpose if it meets the standards required. The condition of the park had deteriorated to the point where it could no longer support competitive football or structured sporting activity at the level this community deserves.”He emphasised that the bank’s support was driven by Anloga’s vibrant sporting culture and talent base: “The proposal to install an astro turf surface came with a clear case: Anloga has the population, the sporting culture, and the talent. What was missing was the infrastructure. Ghana EXIMBank assessed that case and found it credible. We provided financing under our mandate to support investment that generates economic and social returns for Ghanaians.”Built to international standards, the facility will host league matches, tournaments, training programs, and school competitions year-round.To ensure sustainability, a management committee that will be responsible for the day-to-day running of the facility was also inaugurated, drawing membership from the Anlo Traditional Council, Anlo Municipal Assembly, youth groups and other stakeholders.“A facility without governance deteriorates. The introduction of the management committee today is as important as the ribbon-cutting,” Sylvester Mensah observed.Mr. Mensah credited Togbi Sri III for championing the project, noting his pivotal role in identifying the need and driving its completion. In response, Togbi Sri III expressed heartfelt appreciation: “This astro turf park is more than a facility; it is an investment in our youth and the future of Anloga. We are grateful to Ghana EXIMBank for supporting the aspirations of the Anlo people.”The project, delivered as part of Ghana EXIMBank’s 10th anniversary CSR initiatives, is expected to transform sports development in Anloga while providing a modern venue for community events.
