Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Ghanaian sprinter Joseph Paul Amoah electrified the track as he clinched the gold medal in the men\u2019s 200m final held on Friday at the University of Ghana Stadium.<\/b><\/p>\n

With determination and skill, he delivered a spectacular performance to claim the coveted gold medal.<\/p>\n

Crossing the finish line with a swift time of 20.70 seconds, Amoah secured the top spot on the podium. Following closely behind was Claude Emmanuel Itoungue Bogognie of Cameroon, who secured the silver medal with a time of 20.74 seconds.<\/p>\n
