He stressed the need for other organizations, including the Ministry of Youth and Sports and the Ghana Football Association, to work towards restoring Ghana’s status as a football powerhouse.

Avenorgbo also pointed out the importance of not neglecting other sports disciplines such as athletics, volleyball, boxing, hockey, basketball, and table tennis, reiterating that a focus solely on football could have a significant impact on the nation’s psyche and productivity in the workplace.

Professor Baffour Agyemang-Duah, the CEO of the John Agyekum Kufuor Foundation, expressed gratitude to Melcom Group for their support and highlighted that the main purpose of the games is to raise funds to aid the foundation’s work in supporting youth mentoring and education initiatives.
