Former captain of Ghana’s senior national men’s team the Black Stars Asamoah Gyan has been named a member of the governing New Patriotic Party’s (NPP’s) Manifesto Committee for the 2024 general elections.
The committee constituted by the party’s flagbearer Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is tasked to review its previous manifestos as well as engage with stakeholders to draft a comprehensive policy document in response to the country’s developmental challenges.
It was unveiled last night in a statement signed by the Communication Director for the NPP’s 2024 Campaign Committee Dennis Miracles Aboagye and is chaired by the now former Major Leader Osei Kyei-Mensah Bonsu.
Visibly among the list is the former Black Stars captain, who has not been known to be associated with any political party until his recent appearance at a public address by the NPP flagbearer.
The retired footballer will lead the Youth and Sports subcommittee of the Manifesto Committee.
