Asamoah Gyan, former Black Stars striker and Ghana’s all-time leading goal scorer, was a notable attendee at Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia’s lecture on Wednesday, February 7, 2024.
The event took place at the prestigious Kofi Ohene Konadu auditorium, located at the University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA).
Gyan’s presence at the Vice President’s lecture highlighted his growing involvement in the political landscape.
In 2020, Gyan had hinted at his political aspirations, expressing interest in representing the Weija-Gbawe constituency in the Greater Accra Region as a Member of Parliament (MP).
He stated in an interview with Adom FM, “I’m happy that people are grateful for what I have done. I said earlier that people want me to become their MP.
The most important thing is that people are happy with what I have done. Talking about politics anything can happen, but for now politics is not on my mind.”
Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the NPP’s flagbearer, aims to clinch the presidency in the upcoming 2024 General Elections, hoping to break the “8-year cycle” and lead Ghana into a new era of governance.
