He helped the Porcupine Warriors to win the Ghana Premier League on three occasions – 2003, 2005 and 2008.
On the continental level, he was again instrumental for the Kumasi-based side in their march to the 2004 Caf Confederation Cup final where they succumbed to country rivals Hearts of Oak in an all-Ghana final.
The fullback’s fine showing on the domestic scene did not go unnoticed as he was rewarded with a Ghana debut in an international friendly fixture against Benin in 2003, going on to make about four appearances in all for the Black Stars.
