Ghana’s team captain, Abeku Jackson, has won his second medal at the ongoing African Games competition after his success in the men’s 100m butterfly event.

Abeku claimed a bronze medal in the event finishing with a time of 53.80 seconds.

The 23-year-old’s achievement adds to Ghana’s four medals which were won over the weekend and a second for the swimmer after clinching bronze in the men’s 50m butterfly event.

The Ghanaian was beaten to gold and silver by Egypt’s Nasr Abdalla (53.29s) and Eaton Jarden (53.45s) respectively.

The race was done on Tuesday morning after a false start on Monday evening meant it had to be pushed to another time.

On Sunday, Abeku became the Ghanaian swimmer to win a medal at the African Games, ending a long-standing drought in the sport for the nation.
