Ghana first lady Rebecca Akufo-Addo has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with China that will see Chinese children coming to Ghana to study how to play football.
Ghana will also benefit as kids will travel to China to learn Martial arts and Ping Pong.
Ghana and China have enjoyed very excellent international relations which have seen many Ghanaians currently schooling in Beijing and other parts of China.
In a tweet after the agreement of the MOU, the First Lady said:
“The aim of the MOU is to organize a recreational exchange program where ten Ghanaian Children will be sent to China. They will be trained in martial arts and ping-pong and ten Chinese kids will come to Ghana to be trained in football.”
With this ten Ghanaian kids will travel to China every year to undergo training in Martial arts and Ping Pong and a similar number of Chinese kids will also be in Ghana to acquire football skills.
Despite a few setbacks in Ghana Football with the Black Stars failing to qualify for the World Cup, the country is still recognised outside as a power-house in the game.
