Speaking at the Home of the African Paralympic Committee (AfPC) Secretariat inaugurated in Accra, Hon. Mustapha Ussif said “the appointment and eventual inauguration of the Local Organizing Committee (LOC) today is a vital indication that our nation, under the able leadership of the President of the Republic Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, is anxiously ready and prepared to do successfully.

I do not doubt that the Chairman and his members of the LOC will do their maximum best to mobilize all the resources required for the nation to successfully host the thousands of athletes, coaches and team officials from all 55 countries in Africa as well as hundreds of dignitaries and volunteers from the rest of the world in Ghana as a test event for the 13th African Games.

Regional Games of this magnitude can only be successfully planned,
implemented and delivered with the support and collaboration
of all stakeholders, institutions, organizations, partners, sponsors,
philanthropists and individuals. Therefore, as a result of this, I am inviting all and sundry to join the Ministry of Youth and Sports as we seek to make history by delivering a memorable first-ever Africa Para Games in the annals of African Para Sports and the Paralympic Movement in Africa”.
