The Ghana Paralympic Committee is assuring all Ghanaians that all athletes living in the Turkish region are safe and sound after a devastating earthquake which has so far reportedly claimed 2,300 lives.
A number of Ghanaians are within the areas of the incident and concerns are being raised over their safety since the incident.
The Paralympic Officials are quickly in a press release (attached here) assuring all that they have so far reached a number of them and are doing well, pledging to continue monitoring developments in and around Turkey.
In a related development, the national team’s department of the Ghana football association says it’s in touch with Ghanaian Footballers in and around Turkey and Syria to ensure their safety.
