Former ADC to the late former president Col. Festus Aboagye, has said, he is still deciding on what to do with drinks given to him by the late former President Flt. Lt. J. J Rawlings more than 21 years ago.

In a Facebook post sighted by Apexnewsgh.com, Col. Festus Aboagye said, “More than 21 years ago, I received these drinks from the Late President”.

“This was after a state function (can’t remember which). Upon returning to the Castle, I was asking permission to leave as Ceremonial ADC. That was when the Late President said to his Wife, “Nana, can you give some of the cakes to Col Aboagye and ask WOI Tetteh to give him some of the drinks.”

“Of course, the fat cake was consumed long ago with coffee or tea, my pastime but the drinks have been kept all this while, collecting dust and becoming vintage. Many times, the Ceremonial ADC doesn’t get to enjoy what dignitaries enjoy at banquets at the State House or cocktails in the Castle Garden because he isn’t there as a guest. This gesture by the Oldman attests to his thoughtfulness. I’m yet to decide what to do with the drinks. Suggestions are welcome”.

May his kind soul rest in eternal peace”. He posted
