Football funs to sign goodwill messages on special ball

Accra, June 15, GNA - A Chinese made ball, which is six meters in diameter with a blower and Ghana colours, has been placed at entrance of Parliament House for football funs to sign goodwill messages to the Black Stars.

Ms Vesta Abankwa, Marketing Manager of Blet Services, said the ball would be sent to all the regions for supporters to sign signifying their support to the Stars to win and bring the cup home from the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

The idea, which was motivated by Infinity Communications, has the signatories of Vice President John Dramani Mahama, Mrs Betty Mould Iddrisu, Minister of Justice and Attorney-General and Mr Alban Sumani Bagbin, Minister of Water Resources, Works and Housing and some members of Parliament.

Some of the messages read: "Shine, bring the cup home, we support you Black Stars," "Inspiring match continue on Gods blessing to lead the Stars to the finals," and "Go Stars go! Our prayers are with you." Ms Abankwa said the ball was manufactured, based on the slogan of V.K and Energy Drinks; "Stay in the game". She said when the stars qualify to the next level the ball would be taken to South Africa for supporters to append their signature. 15 June 10
