Bernard Martei Korley (BMK), a former (NDC) parliamentary aspirant for the Ledzokuku Constituency, has extended his support to this year's Homowo Festival in Teshie with significant donations to key traditional and cultural groups in the community.
The philanthropist and Founder and CEO of BMK Hope Foundation donated assorted alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, packs of mineral water and a total of GH¢2,000 to the Teshie Asafoiatsemei and Asafoianyemei Group as well as the Teshie International Port Club on Thursday August 28, 2025.

Speaking during an interview after the support, Korley emphasised that his motivation stemmed from a deep commitment to preserving and promoting Teshie's rich cultural heritage. "As a custodian of the people and someone who believes in upholding the culture and traditions of Ubukuman, I saw it as my responsibility to bring smiles to the faces of my people during this year's Homowo Festival," he said. "This is not politically motivated; as a proud Teshie-born son, I see it as a duty to support my culture.
