The Director General of the National Sports Authority, Mr. Joe Kpenge has called on the general public to support team Ghana Ahead of the upcoming 2016 Olympic Games in Rio Dejenario.
There has been wide spread calls from Ghanaian Sports lovers that the team should not go to the multi sports event as a result of failure to make any impact in previous editions.
But the National Sports Authority boss in an interview with Accra based Joy FM stated that, although he would have wished Ghana qualify more athletes, the public should back those that are going to represent the country.
“If we want to send athletes there, we want to send the best, if 15 or 20 are the best, who are medal hopefuls, then that is okay that we don’t send a large contingent there”, Mr. Kpenge said, adding that, “So if these can guarantee us some medals, some honor, so we should appreciate that.”
The Sports Authority boss further expressed worry over Ghana’s inability to send more athletes to the Global Showpiece.
