El Wak survivor shares desire to join GAF
Earlier, YEN.com.gh reported that a young Ghanaian man, who survived the El-Wak Stadium stampede, opened up about his decision to join the Ghana Armed Forces.
Speaking in an interview, he confessed to having difficulties paying the fees for his tertiary education, hence he saw joining the military as the perfect opportunity.
Despite being a student at the Accra Technical University (ATU), the young man said that had he been successfully recruited, he would have either deferred his studies or dropped out of school completely.
