Ghana sprinter, Benjamin Azamati has expressed his deep pride in representing Ghana as he gears up for his second Olympics.
Azamati is a member of Team Ghana, which is currently in Paris for the Olympic Games.
The team has been training in Strasbourg ahead of the competition, which runs from July 26 to August 11.
Reflecting on his experience at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, Azamati shared his excitement for the upcoming games and emphasized the significance of representing his country.
“Representing Ghana means a lot. To be able to put on the jersey and go out there and represent the whole nation means a lot to me. I’ve seen Aziz (Zakari) and the others represent Ghana and I think it’s time for us to also do it,” he told SuperSport.
“I believe putting on that jersey goes a long way. It shows the work that we’ve put in, setting everything else aside. I’m just happy and proud to be able to wear the jersey and represent our country,” he added.
Azamati will be competing as part of Ghana’s Men’s 4×100 Relay Team in Paris.
