The #BringBackTheLove campaign is an initiative by new Ghana Football Association boss, Kurt Okraku, to whip up support for the various national teams.
The initiative appears to have earned positive attention and made gains as locals came out to watch the Stars’ first training session at the Cape Coast Stadium later on Tuesday evening.
