Black Stars
defender Harrison Afful on Tuesday meet with the Ghana Weight lifting team in
Tunisia made up of duo Juliana Arkoh and Christian Amoh and other officials
including head coach Majeti Fetrie and President of the Ghana weightlifting Association
Ben Nunoo Mensah.
In an
interview with Ace sports Journalist Charles Osei Asibey far away inc Tunisia ,
the Versatile defender said the visit was to Motivate and encourage the team ahead of their
African Youth Olympic qualifiers.
“I came to
motivate them. Because if this is what they have decided to do I think they
have to go all out because me for instance as a professional footballer I know I
have no other work to do apart from football so I always give in my all when playing.
That is exactly what I want them to do as well”,Afful said.
“I want to
encourage them and I believe they will succeed. I don’t usually watch this game
but I believe they can succeed .They should just be dedicated and take anything
that the coach tells them. They should also pray and shouldn’t joke with their
training. He added.
The two
weightlifters are scheduled to represent the nation to seek honours at the
Africa Olympic Games Weightlifting Qualifiers fixed for April 16-25 after
putting up an excellent performance in Morocco.
