Subsequently, the duo will call on the Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu I, and the Okyehene Nana Amoatia Ofori Paning for further deliberations.

According to the President of COSUA, Mr. Sarfo Abebrese, the move forms part of efforts to rally a chunk football fans behind the six African representatives Ghana, Cote d'Ivoire, Nigeria, Cameroun, Algeria and host, South Africa in the forthcoming soccer showpiece slated for South Africa next June.

Happenings from the corridors of COSUA suggests that Richgold would be leaving for the US to put finishing touches to the sound track that will be featured in South Africa.
