Kaya Forson and Zaira Forson will not compete for Ghana in the African Games.

The Forson sisters have been ruled out due to their school’s examination schedule in France.

“Zaira Forson and Kaya Forson are the only major long-distance swimmers that we have. Those who have done it consistently. Certainly, it is going to affect the team, but what can we say? they are still students aside from being swimmers, so education is paramount and they need to focus on their education.”
