The Ghana Esports Federation (GESF) has extended its congratulations to John Mahama following his victory in the 2024 presidential election.
In a statement released by GESF President Igor Boumekpo, the organization expressed optimism about Mahama’s leadership and its potential to enhance youth development and esports growth in Ghana.
“As a community committed to innovation, development, and youth empowerment through esports, we are inspired by your steadfast commitment to national progress,” Boumekpo said. “We believe that your leadership will usher in a new era of opportunities for the youth, including those engaged in the rapidly growing field of esports.”
The federation highlighted Mahama’s dedication to inclusivity, growth, and modernization, emphasizing how these align with the esports community’s vision of establishing Ghana as a hub for esports in Africa.
The statement also called attention to the growing importance of esports in global youth culture and its potential to drive economic growth and technological innovation. “We are confident that under your administration, avenues will be created to nurture talent, support digital innovation, and promote sports as a vital tool for national development,” Boumekpo added.
This aligns with John Mahama’s broader vision for youth and sports development, outlined in the National Democratic Congress (NDC)’s 2024 manifesto.
The manifesto pledged to provide scholarships for sports talents, invest in lesser-known sports, and ensure equitable support for all national teams.
The GESF’s focus on esports as a modern extension of youth engagement complements these commitments.
