Ghana Football Association (GFA) president Kurt Okraku hosted Qatar Legacy Ambassador Samuel Eto’o, as well as the Supreme Committee and Legacy delegation, at the GFA headquarters in Accra.
The purpose of the meeting was to welcome the African legend to Ghana and to discuss plans for the FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
Executive Council members Nana Sarfo Oduro and Frederick Acheampong were present at the meeting.
Others in attendance included Alexander Asante, Deputy General Secretary, Dr. Kwame Baah Nuako, Chairman of the Club Licensing Board, and Henry Asante Twum, Director of Communications.
Prior to visiting Ghana, Samuel Etoo and the Supreme Committee delegation travelled to Cameroon and Senegal to meet with football federations, fans, and media.
This fan tour is an opportunity to engage the passionate, vibrant African fans who have been unwavering in their support for Qatar and to celebrate the uniqueness of the First Arab World Cup.
Eto’o is a well-known, well-respected continental hero and former player, and his presence celebrates Africa, African teams, and their fans, as well as creating a narrative that connects Africa to the tournament and Qatar as host.
Local fans and media representatives are being kept up to date on the unique Qatar 2022 hosting concept, tournament readiness, lodging, Hayya (fan ID), fan experience, and other pertinent topics.
Okraku later gave his colleague a replica Black Stars jersey.
