The Local Organising Committee (LOC) for the 2023 African Games visited the Black Stars’ camp, donating items to support the team’s preparation for the upcoming African Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Côte d’Ivoire. The LOC emphasized the players’ role as ambassadors for the African Games, urging their support. The Black Stars’ captain, Andre Ayew, expressed gratitude for the gesture and reciprocated by presenting an autographed shirt to the LOC. The team is currently in a nine-day camp in Kumasi, gearing up for their AFCON opener against Cape Verde on January 14, 2024.
