Officials from the Ghana Mission in the United Arab Emirates have paid a morale-boosting visit to the camp of the Ghana women's national football team, who are in the country for the ongoing Pink Ladies Cup.
The delegation — comprising Consular Officer Percy Okudzeto, Consul and Head of Chancery Abdul-Jalil Sigli Yakubu Abdulai and Head of Transport Anas Shaibu, met with players and technical staff to reaffirm the government’s unwavering support and commitment to the team’s safety and welfare.
The visit comes at a time of heightened concern following reports of unrest in parts of the Middle East. Against that backdrop, the diplomatic officials sought to reassure the squad that their security remains a top priority.
During an interactive session with the players, Consular Officer Percy Okudzeto emphasized that the Ghanaian government, through its embassy in the UAE, is closely monitoring developments and maintaining constant communication with relevant authorities.
“We want the team to stay calm and focus on the competition. The government and the embassy are doing everything possible to ensure your safety and well-being,” he assured.
Consul and Head of Chancery Abdul-Jalil Sigli Yakubu Abdulai echoed those sentiments, reiterating the mission’s readiness to provide immediate assistance should the need arise during the team’s stay.
The players and team leadership expressed deep appreciation for the visit, describing it as both timely and uplifting. They noted that the presence of Ghana’s diplomatic representatives had strengthened morale and reinforced a sense of national solidarity far from home.
