Ghana National Gas Company Limited CEO, Dr Ben K. D. Asante, has reiterated his outfit's quest to support sports in the country.
According to him, lack of funds has been the bane of sports development in Ghana, hence the nation’s premiere mid-stream gas business company decision to support sports.
He believes his company's sponsorship for the pugilistic sport (Fist of Fury) earlier that produced Samuel Takyi, Ghana and Africa's only boxing medalist, attests to the need for support from the corporate world.
On Monday, September 7, the Ghana Gas boss hosted the Olympian together with other team members (Black Bombers) at his Roman Ridge office.
He shared his joy with the boxer saying, "Sammy, you have done well, you made us all proud, we will continue to support you."
Dr Ben Asante added, "We will partner boxing and ensure we produce more world champions. We will do this in monthly donations because we have realized lack of finances hamper sports development. Government can't do it alone."
The boxer expressed gross thanks to the Ghana Gas CEO for the gesture and promised to work harder.
Ghana Gas owns and operates the infrastructure required to gather, process, transport, and market natural gas resources in Ghana.
