Ghana Black Satellites goalkeeper Ibrahim Danlad says the team wants to win the WAFU Zone B U-20 Championship to honor President Nana Addo Danquah Akuffo Addo.
The National U-20 side has been battling their peers for honors at the sub regional level for the past few weeks.
The team has successfully negotiated their path from the group stages to the finals fending off competition from Nigeria, Ivory Coast and more recently, Niger.
They next come face to face with Burkina Faso on Saturday with the ultimate trophy at stake.
Ghana recently had General elections with majority of the population voting to retain the President Nana Akuffo Addo.
Speaking to Wontumi TV in an interview, Ibrahim Danlad has revealed the best commemoration of the president’s reelection will be to deliver him the WAFU Zone B U-20 Championship trophy.
“Initially the very big task was to secure qualification to Mauritania and that has been attained,” the Asante Kotoko goalie told Wontumi TV.
“Now the next step is to fight hard and win the trophy for Ghana and the president [H. E.] Nana Addo. We recently had peaceful elections so we believe if we win the trophy and bring it home, it will add to the joy and peace already in the country.
“So the jubilation we had yesterday is now in the past but we have started to engage each other to work hard to bring the trophy to Ghana”
