Newly appointed Vice President of the United Boxing Coaches Association, Coach Lawrence Carl Lokko, is urging the Local Organizing Committee (LOC) for the upcoming 13th African Games to rally behind the Ghana Boxing Supporters Union (GHABSU). He calls for extensive support to ensure unwavering encouragement for the national boxing team, the Black Bombers, throughout their competitions at the Bukom Boxing Arena.

In an exclusive interview following his election, Coach Lokko expressed gratitude to all coaches and appealed for unity to enhance Ghana’s boxing standing in Africa. Noting the absence of Ghanaian officials among referees and judges, he emphasized the crucial role of fan support in the Black Bombers’ success.

The seasoned technical expert appealed to the LOC, National Sports Authority (NSA), and the Ministry of Youth & Sports to provide assistance to GHABSU, facilitating their presence at the venue. He believes that with the backing of passionate fans, the Black Bombers will gain the energy and confidence needed to secure numerous medals in boxing.

Coach Lokko emphasized, “All they need is their transport, water, food, and per diem, and they will deliver.”
