13th African Games: President Akufo-Addo to launch official logo, mascot and website of Accra 2023 Today
Ghana’s President, H.E Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, will launch the official logo, mascot, and website of the 13th African Games – dubbed Accra 2023, on Thursday, December 16, 2023, at the Grand Arena of the AICC.
The West African sporting powerhouse won the rights to host the 2023 African Games (previously christened All-Africa Games) in October 2018.
Since it secured the rights to host the multi-sport event in the 2.557 million-populated capital city, the Local Organising Committee headed by Executive Chairman Dr. Kwaku Ofosu-Asare has been working feverishly around the clock to send a good signal about Ghana’s readiness to host the rest of the continent.
Meanwhile, some of the questions bothering on the minds of many Ghanaians as well as most citizens of the second largest continent in the world – Africa, are centered on information on the logo, mascot, and the website of the Pan African Games.
Well, that question is set to be answered on Thursday at 11 AM in Accra at the International Conference Center when the President of the land H.E Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo graces the unveiling ceremony and does the honours of launching the logo, the mascot, and the website of the games.
Hon. Mustapha Ussif, the Minister of Youth and Sports, as well as Parliament’s Select Committee on Sports, will all grace the event on Thursday.
The 13th African Games is expected to bring together 54 countries, 25 sporting disciplines, and 16,000 sportsmen.
