Prince Ernest Oduro-Mensah, Chief Executive Officer of the NSC received the items and expressed gratitude to the Chinese company for the kind gesture.

He said “it takes great resources to keep the facilities in good shape and we’ll continue to consult Shanghai Construction Group for their periodic advice to maintain the facilities.
