Nyantakyi, Kurt Okraku Visit Nsawam Prison

Date:

Football legends, musicians, actors, politicians, and business executives, close to 150 of them, converged on Nsawam Medium Security Prison on Thursday, May 22, 2026, for a large-scale humanitarian outreach aimed at supporting inmates and promoting rehabilitation through compassion and solidarity.

The initiative, organised by the KN Foundation in partnership with the Joana Gyan Foundation, the Professional Footballers Association of Ghana, and the Ghana Football Association, brought together some of Ghana’s best-known public figures in what organisers described as a mission centred on humanity rather than publicity.

Among the notable personalities present were former Ghana Football Association President Kwesi Nyantakyi, current GFA President Kurt Edwin Simeon-Okraku, football icon Abedi Ayew, former Black Stars defender Samuel Osei Kuffour and former international footballer Anthony Baffoe.

The event also attracted entertainers including Dr Cryme and Patapaa, as well as Members of Parliament and corporate leaders.

As part of the donations, the delegation presented football jerseys, footballs, tracksuits, bags of rice, fish, bottled water and an undisclosed cash contribution to support inmates and prison officers.

The delegation later paid a courtesy call on traditional authorities at Nsawam, where chiefs and elders welcomed the group and expressed appreciation for the initiative.
