Asamoah Gyan runs away from Bawumia and NPP

Asamoah Gyan, former Black Stars captain, has denounced his New Patriotic Party membership in order to concentrate on humanitarian efforts.

Ghana’s record goalscorer said in a statement posted on his social media handle on X (formerly Twitter) that he will now be stepping back from active politics to concentrate on independently helping the young of Ghana through the Asamoah Gyan Foundation, having not been fair to the country’s youth by being associated with a political party.

Just a few weeks after Asamoah Gyan was observed at the NPP Presidential Candidate and Vice President, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia’s campaign launch, the 2010 BBC African Footballer of Year was named chairman of Bawumia’s Youth and Sports Manifesto sub-committee in February 2024.

Asamoah Gyan joined the vice president on a campaign walk in Akropong in the Eastern Region last month.

In the statement, however, the 38-year-old Gyan stated his activities have not been fair to the young people of Ghana and he will not be involved in partizan work going ahead.

“I haven’t been fair to the youth and the people of Ghana. Henceforth, I am not affiliated to any political party. I will continue with my humanitarian work and help the youth of Ghana in my own small way. Nothing political. I wish all the political parties a peaceful election on the December 7 elections. God bless our homeland Ghana. Thank you,” Gyan posted alongside the statement.
