President of Liberia, George Oppong Weah has sent a delegation on his behalf to mourn with the family of late Christian Atsu.
He donated $10,000 to Atsu’s family on Wednesday, February 22, 2023.
The delegation led by former Ghana footballer, Pastor Kwame Ayew relayed Oppong Weah’s message to the Twasam family.
Kumasi Asante Kotoko’s Chief Executive Officer, Nana Yaw Amponsah earlier in the day also commiserated with Christian Atsu’s family.
The family of Mubarak Wakaso was at Christian Atsu’s family house to extend its sympathy.
The two players shared a great relationship during their time playing for the Black Stars.
