Family members and sympathizers wept as the mortal remains of late sports commentator, Lawyer Sarfo Abrebrese arrived at the Aviance Cargo village for a short ceremony on Wednesday, April 19, 2023.

Abrebrese passed away in his sleep on March 9th in the United States of America, where he had been working as a lawyer.
