AFCON Qualifiers: Administrator of Ghana Sports Fund urges Ghanaians to cheer on the Black Stars
He said few things in national life do this. Few institutions can bring millions of people to the same TV screen, radio or roadside speaker at the same moment.
Dr. David Kofi Wuaku, Administrator of the Ghana Sports Fund, has emphasized that the upcoming match between Ghana and The Gambia on September 19th presents an opportunity for the nation to unite. Dr. Wuaku noted that Ghanaians often have differing opinions on various issues, from politics to local matters such as traffic and culinary preferences.
However, when the Black Stars take to the field, these disputes cease. He pointed out that few entities in national life can unite millions of people at the same time on a single screen, radio, or speaker. This unity over a sporting event should prompt the country to reflect on the other ways it can come together. Dr. Wuaku urged citizens to view the match not merely as a sporting event but as a national gathering.
He encouraged people to wear Ghana's colors, attend the stadium if possible, or gather with neighbors to cheer collectively. Dr. Wuaku concluded by asserting that while a trophy is unnecessary to prove national unity, remembering the shared elation felt during such matches is crucial, especially on days when there is no game.
