Wunnam Iddrisu, the eldest son of Ghana's Minister for Education, launched his new sports agency on October 2, 2025.
The young CEO of Kick Nation Sports Agency arrived at his launch ceremony in a suit ready for the milestone occasion.
Scores of Ghana's top sports and media personalities, including ex-Black Stars skipper Asamoah Gyan and his brother, Baffour Gyan, were present at the event.
In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh, Wunnam was seen exchanging pleasantries with the Ghanaian legend and later addressed the audience on the stage.
Who is Education Minister Haruna Iddrisu's son?
Until the launch ceremony, not many knew about the renowned parliamentarian and minister's son.
A video of him reading the final vote of thanks during the burial rite of Hajia Mariama, Iddrisu's late mother, last year has surfaced on social media.
Wunnam is believed to be a student at the Ashesi University studying Information Technology with a strong knack for cybersecurity.
However, just like his father, the 20-year-old scholar is a man of many passions, hence his foray into sports.

His father, Haruna Iddrisu, who serves as the Member of Parliament for Tamale South, is the proud owner of Karela United and Steadfast Football Club.
His efforts in football talent development led to the scouting of Abdul Fatawu Issahaku, who now plays for the Black Stars and England's Leicester City FC.
