The Ghanaian duo of Joseph Paul Amoah and Ibrahim Fuseini has booked their spots in the final of the men’s 200m at the ongoing 2023 African Games.
This comes on the back of a 1-2 finish in semifinal 2 on Thursday night at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium.
Joe Paul won the semifinal in 20.93 seconds and again jogged his way to the finish line just like in the heats earlier in the morning.
Meanwhile, Ibrahim Fuseini placed second just behind his compatriot with a time of 21.03 seconds.
