The Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGA), led by veteran Ghanaian Musician, Bessa Simons has honored popular Ghanaian musician and entrepreneur Sparqlyn, known in private life as Ahmmed Kanneh Larweh. 

Sparqlyn was honored for his remarkable contributions to the country’s music industry and youth development.

Sparqlyn was presented with two elegant plaques for his outstanding contribution to the Ghanaian music industry over the years. 

In addition to the plaques, the musician, who also holds the chieftaincy title Noryam Matse, the Development Chief of Manye Krobo, was presented with a beautifully crafted citation which was signed by Madam Elizabeth Tagoe of Tagoe Sisters fame (Chairperson of The Greater Accra Chapter).

The citation was also an acknowledgment of his relentless efforts in promoting music and playing a pivotal role in youth empowerment. It highlighted his commitment to nurturing young talents and fostering unity among the Ga Adangbe people. 

Sparqlyn, who was visibly moved by the recognition, expressed his gratitude to MUSIGA and all who supported his journey after he received the plagues and citation. 

In a quick chat with the media after the event, he reaffirmed his commitment to using his platform and chieftaincy role to promote Ghanaian music and empower the youth.
