The President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Mr. Kurt Okraku has called on the government for continued support for sports to help the national teams win more trophies.

The leader of the country’s football governing body on Tuesday led a delegation made up of the Ghana U-20 CAF U-20 AFCON winning team to present the trophy to the President at the Jubilee House.

Taking his turn to deliver a speech, Mr. Okraku promised that the trophy will be the first of many to come.

To achieve that though, the Ghana FA boss called for more support from the president while revealing that his administration wants to put Ghana at the apex of world football.

“Mr. President, our appearance here, is to give you a small taste of what the future holds for Ghana football. And our belief is that with the right level of support that we received on the journey to Benin and to Mauritania, this is just the tip of the iceberg and Ghana will bring back the love, Ghana will win more trophies, Ghana will be at the apex of not only African football but world football,” Mr. Kurt Okraku said.

Later this month, the Black Stars of Ghana will play against South Africa and Sao Tome & Principe in the chase to secure qualification to the 2022 AFCON.

The GFA will hope to count on the regular support of the government to push on the team.
