Asamoah Gyan Joins Bawumia Team, Chairs Sports Manifesto Committee
Ghana’s former Black Stars captain, Asamoah Gyan, has been included in the manifesto committee of Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
The former Ghana captain is tasked to generate and propose policies regarding youth and sports with his expertise.
The list of members was released on Wednesday night, including other names assigned to various sectors.
Dr Bawumia who doubles as the vice president of Ghana unveiled his vision to lead Ghana as the next president this month.
The event held at the UPSA auditorium had Asamoah Gyan present, affirming his affiliation with the party.
