Black Stars handed coronavirus assignment from Ghana parliament

Ghana Parliamentary Select Committee on Sports, Youth and Culture chairman Alex Agyekum has urged the Black Stars to join the nation's fight against the coronavirus pandemic.

The disease, also known as Covid-19, has so far infected 641 people in the West African nation, killing eight.

General captain Asamoah Gyan, Inter Milan ace Kwadwo Asamoah, captain Andre Ayew and centre-back Kasim Adams have all individually made related contributions to various communities and institutions but the parliament stated a team presentation would be welcomed as the government continues its call on individuals and corporate Ghana to join its fight with financial support.
