The Mfantsiman Old Girls Association (MOGA) has been highly commended for its commitment to public wellness following the successful hosting of its annual National Health Walk at the University of Ghana. Mr. Gilbert Abeiku Santana Aggrey, Deputy Chief Executive of the Ghana Tourism Authority, praised the association for initiating the event, which drew over 500 participants including alumni from various educational institutions. He highlighted the critical role such initiatives play in fostering social cohesion and providing a necessary outlet for physical activity in an era where busy lifestyles and limited recreational spaces often lead to sedentary health challenges. The event featured a comprehensive health program including specialized screenings and aerobic sessions. These activities were designed not only to improve physical fitness but also to provide a platform for networking and community engagement among graduates. By integrating professional health checks with physical exercise, MOGA successfully promoted a proactive approach to wellness that extends beyond its immediate membership to the wider public. Mrs. Henrietta Opoku Amissah, the National President of MOGA, expressed her gratitude to the supporters and members whose involvement ensures the association's sustainability. She emphasized the association’s ongoing mission to uplift their alma mater and urged current students to embody the values of discipline and hard work. As MOGA continues to champion these health initiatives, the annual walk stands as a testament to the power of alumni networks in driving positive social change and promoting a healthier lifestyle for all Ghanaians.
