A PAST Supreme Knight of the Knights of Marshall, Sir Kt Eddie Prah, has urged Marshallans elevated to senior positions in the Noble Order to live up to expectation.
He said the tendency of Marshallans slipping into slumber was not good for the officers and the society as a whole.
Sir Kt Prah gave the advice after 31 officers of the Knights or Marshall were elevated to the rank of Honorary Past Supreme Knights at the Marshallan Centre in Sekondi on June 25, 2016.
At the ceremony, Sir Kt. James Adomako was the installation officer, Sir Kt Prah as installation secretary with Sir Kt Tony Kemavor as installation guard with W/Bro Monsignor John Opoku-Agyeman as the installation chaplain.
Among those elevated were Sir Kt Bro. Dr. Peter Acquah, chairman of the 90th anniversary planning committee and also chairman of the Historical and Research Committee of the Noble Order and Sir Kt Bro. D. D. Dawlah, chairman of the Marshallan Security Trust (MST) board.
In his address to the newly elevated, Sir Kt Prah observed that most often after elevation to the HPSKs, such brothers often failed to attend meetings and other Marshallan programmes except to show up in church on Sundays with their regalia for everyone to see the .
He explained that to be elevated to the rank of HPSK put enormous responsibilities on them.
That, he said, required that they put their experience to bear on the activities of their Councils and the Noble Order as a whole.
He commended the newly elevated officers for attaining that position.
The leader of the newly elevated PSKs, Sir Kt Michael Xatse, gave the assurance that they would be motivated by the elevation to work harder.
