Jama, (S/R), Sept. 23, GNA – The Bui Power Authority (BPA), has ended the Bui Talents Development Programme, selecting additional five young talented footballers in the dam’s operational enclave to be trained by the John Accra-based Paintsil Football Academy.

Mr. Samuel Kofi Dzamesi, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the BPA initiated the programme and entered a three-year partnership with the Academy to organise football competition among the 16 major communities around the dam’s enclave.

The communities are spread across the Banda District of Bono, and the Bole-Bambio District of the Savannah Regions.

Under the agreement, signed in 2021, the Academy founded by John Paintsil, a former key player of the national team, scouts, selects and groom footballing talents in the area.

With the selection of Baah Elisha and Samuel Adjei, natives of Gbao, Joel Fumbio from Teselima, Dicey Bediako from Banda Boase and Abdul Mohammed Kashif, a native of Jogbio, the programme had so far enrolled 12 footballers into the academy.
