Ho, Nov 09, GNA- The Office of the Awoamefia and Eli Boutique Hotel & Beach Resort have announced a goodwill payment of GHS500.00 to each vendor, who registered for the cancelled Hogbetsotso Beach Concert.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n

The 2026 Anlo Hogbetsotso Festival was promoted as tradition meeting entertainment in grand style, with music superstars Stonebwoy and Shatta Wale headlining major events, the former at Lalana Beach, Anloga on Saturday and the latter at the hotel at Tegbi on Sunday.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n

What was billed as a weekend of two giants ended in a tale of two concerts \u2013 the first night delivered with Stonebwoy going ahead as planned at Lalana Beach, later posting: \u201cSpirit Led! Anloga loved it!! Hogbetsotso Festival.\u201d And the other night never happened. It was cancelled hours before it started.\u202f\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n

Many vendors had already stocked up, paid for transport and set up stalls in expectation of the Sunday crowd.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a statement issued by the hotel, the Office of the Awoamefia and Eli Hotel acknowledged the time, resources and financial commitments made by all participating vendors.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n

The statement said the cancellation of the concert had placed a financial burden on everyone involved, including the hotel itself.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cDespite the financial strain this places on our own operations, we understand that small businesses are likely to feel the impact even more severely,\u201d\u202fthe statement said.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/figure>\n

It was in that spirit of empathy and goodwill from the Office of the Awoamefia, and in keeping with the hotel\u2019s commitment to corporate social responsibility that the decision was taken to extend the goodwill payment as a token of support to help defray some of the costs incurred.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n

The\u202fManagement admitted that the gesture might not fully cover the expenses incurred, but said it represented a sincere effort to share in the burden during the difficult period.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n

The statement said Eli Hotel & Beach Resort valued its relationship with local businesses and the wider community and remained committed to supporting small enterprises and fostering positive relationships with all its stakeholders.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n

Details regarding the disbursement of the goodwill payments would be communicated directly to the affected vendors, it said.\u202f\u00a0<\/p>\n
