Ghana Black Stars Legend Asamoah Gyan has revealed how he felt when he was named Chairman of Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia’s Manifest Sub committee on Youth and Sports.

The Gyan-led committee is responsible for undertaking a holistic review of the party’s 2016 and 2020 manifestos and engaging all relevant stakeholders to come up with a pragmatic 2024 manifesto on Youth and Sports ahead of the 2024 Presidential Elections.

Weeks after the appointment generated mixed reaction, Asamoah Gyan has himself revealed why he accepted the appointment and how he felt.

“If all Ghana leaders met and said let’s go and talk to this guy. It is an honour. It is something I can’t forget. It made my soul happy . I consider it a good honour”, he said on Asempa FM monitored by MyNewsGh.com Monday.

Asamoah Gyan however clarified that he is not a Politician and is open to working for both the NPP and the NDC.

“I’m not a politician. For me it is a great honour for elders of Ghana to consider me a sports person to be appointed…” He added.

He urged his colleagues not to be afraid to contribute to the country when called upon.

“There are lots of people with ideas who are afraid to give their contribution. I will encourage my colleagues who are approached to contribute. I will contribute regardless of the party. I work under NPP. I work under NDC”. HE added.
