President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo is expected to meet the family of late Ghanaian footballer, Christian Atsu, Ghana Football Association representatives, and Sports Minister, Mustapha Ussif today, Monday, February 27, 2023, ahead of the deceased’s final funeral rites.

Following the 7.8 magnitude catastrophe, Christian Atsu was discovered dead under the debris at his residence in the Turkish province of Hatay.

His body was subsequently brought to Ghana, with government representatives, football community members, colleagues, supporters, and Ghanaians, in general offering their condolences to the bereaved family.

On March 4, 2023, the deceased footballer will be remembered with a one-week memorial observation at Adjiringanor in Accra.

The Minister of Youth and Sports, Mustapha Yussif told the media: “We will call on the President on Monday. Once we do that, the plan that the family has tabled before the Ministry and GFA will be made public because it is subject to the confirmation of the president. A funeral planning committee has also been set up to ensure a befitting funeral.”

The government has vowed to fully engage with the family in giving Atsu a proper burial.

Last Friday, discussions were completed between the Atsu family, Ghana Football Association representatives, and Sports Minister Mustapha Ussif ahead of the late footballer’s final funeral rites.

Meanwhile, the family says it is incredibly grateful for the affection and support showed to them in the wake of the tragic passing of their relative in the devastating earthquake in Turkey.

The Twasams are especially appreciative of the assistance received from the government, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, and Ghanaians during this difficult time.

Robert Ani, a family spokesman, told Citi News that the family’s gratitude for Christian Atsu’s demise cannot be adequately expressed in words.

“The support of the government and Ghanaians has been overwhelming.” First and foremost, I want to thank President Akufo-Addo for taking an active interest in the incident from the start. The president has been very helpful. We want to say thank you to him and the Ghanaians as well.

The support has been overwhelming. People have been calling, visiting, and offering what support they can. So far, I will say that it has been overwhelming,” he said.
