He mentioned that Dr. Bawumia would reward winners of two special categories; Female Footballer of the Year and the novel Sports Journalist of the Year with GH10,000 each.<\/p>\n

Explaining the rationale behind the Vice President’s support for the two categories, Tamimu said Dr. Bawumia has a special interest in female football development, hence the support for the female footballer of the year to encourage young girls who have chosen the path of football and sports.<\/p>\n

For the novel Sports Journalist of the Year, the Vice President’s aide explained that the GH10,000 donation is to support the professional development of the overall winner.<\/p>\n
