President Akufo-Addo has praised Kennedy Agyepong, widely known as Kenpong, for his bold partnership with the French club Bastia.
On Monday, July 15, 2024, President Akufo-Addo hosted Bastia’s Technical Director, Eric Joel, and Kennedy Agyepong at the Jubilee House in Accra. The visit was part of the collaboration between the expatriate outfit and the Kenpong Football Academy.
President Akufo-Addo commended both the Bastia Technical Director and Kenpong for their joint efforts. He emphasized that the initiative will greatly benefit both parties, particularly the academy, in reaching their full potential. He assured them of the government’s support through the Ministry of Youth and Sports.
The president lauded Kenpong as “a man of substance and a force to reckon with when it comes to sports (football) in Ghana and beyond.”
Kenpong, president of Kenpong Football Academy, expressed his gratitude to President Akufo-Addo for his audience and words of encouragement.
The Bastia Technical Director is also expected to pay a courtesy call to former president J.A. Kuffour, who is a patron of the Kenpong Football Academy. Last Sunday, the technical director and Kenpong visited the academy in Winneba.
