13 year old Adelaide Akweley Armah,

a student of Right to Dream Academy admires how journalists work and once wanted

to become a media person until she dreamt of playing football for Ghana.

Thinking it was just a dream her

parents, Mr. Solomon an Faustina Armah never allowed her to be in dangerous war

zones so she joined a group of female footballers for a justification

exercise organized by Crystal Ladies Football Club and out of over 200 players,

she alongside eight others were selected into the Right to Dream.

Akwele who attended Bethany Academy is

certainly among the next generation of disciplined sports people who Ghana

would boast of.

Now that her dream of training in an

international facility has been fulfilled, she wants to train and become a

popular figure.

Akwele, a very fast learner said the

Right to Dream Academy has made her known many things and met very important

people.

She said football is her life and

she prays to achieve much success in her chosen field. Her ambition is to be

selected into the Black Maidens and play at the FIFA World Cup.

She wants to meet the greatest

players like Leo Messi, C Ronaldo, Asamoah Gyan and others and she believes

football will lead her.

Adelaide Armah expressed her

gratitude to the care takers, coaches, physios, trainers and teachers of the

Academy. She noted that without these very caring teachers and mentors the

students cannot make it big, but because they are good, the products of the

Academy instantly become world heroes and stars.

Her idol is Asamoah Gyan and she

prays that he leads the Black Stars of Ghana to a successful World Cup

adventure in Brazil.
