A new textile print has been introduced for the funeral of former President Jerry John Rawlings.
The theme for the wax print is: Odupɔn bi atutu, a Twi expression which means: ‘A big tree has fallen’.
It was designed by Tex Styles Ghana Limited, formerly Ghana Textiles Printing Company Limited, at the instance of the family of the late President.
The name of the cloth was chosen to immortalise the memory of the first President of the Fourth Republic.
The Head of Design, Premium African Textiles/Tex Styles Ghana Limited, Mr Bismarck Adu-Asare, told the Daily Graphic in Tema yesterday that following the demise of the former President, the family contacted the company to come up with a design and name for the fabric.
