Bekoe returned to Accra at the height of the civil unrest in the North African country alongside his namesake and Petrojet teammate Eric Bekoe, with both telling tales of how they struggled to get out of Cairo.
“It was dangerous,” Eric tells KickOffGhana.com. “We moved from Cairo at a point, but it was spreading so we made our way back so we would head back to Ghana and eventually managed that.”
Eric is keen to return to Cairo, but Coffie insist he will only go back when he is convinced it is safe there.
