Rockson-Nelson Dafeamekpor, the Member of Parliament for South Dayi, has disclosed that, because of his love of athletics, he had previously considered going into boxing.
He emphasized his lasting enthusiasm for the sport, but he didn’t discuss the reasons this goal didn’t come true.
During a media interview, the vocal member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) revealed the involvement of prominent Volta Region boxers, such as Willie Klutse.
Speaking about his love of sports, especially football and boxing, Mr. Dafeamekpor expressed his respect for the boxing prowess in the area.
He started talking about his relationship to Ghanaian boxing icon Isaac Agbeko when the host asked him about a cap he was wearing that said “Neho.”
“I’m a sports enthusiast; football, boxing. You know, I nearly became a boxer… in fact, one of the greatest boxers came from the Volta Region: Willie Klutse and co-sportsmen. So, Volta has had its fair share of very good boxers,” he said.
