The defender came as a substitute for John Boye who had a red card in the Benin game and will start due to John Boye missing the Cameroon game.
Jonathan Mensah will pair in the central defence with Kassim Nuhu as the coach is keen on making them stop Cameroon from scoring.
Meanwhile, captain Dede Ayew and his junior brother Jordan Ayew who both netted Ghana's two goals against Benin are said to start.
Many had criticized the Ayew brothers for not being at their best as some suggested that they should not be made to start.
In place of Jordan Ayew, many had suggested that general captain Asamoah Gyan should start against Cameroon.
Coach Kwesi Appiah is however said to make Jordan Ayew start the Cameroon game because he was adjudged the best player of the game against Benin as he also scored a goal.
