A few weeks ago, I came across Abukari Gariba drenched in sweat, trekking to the Baba Yara Sports Stadium from his Akwatialine-based residence.
Gariba, who is now 77 years old, was on his way to watch a football match involving his former club Kumasi Asante Kotoko at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi
However, he had to trek in the scorching sun, because he had no means of transport, neither had he any money to board one.
Second home
Trekking to the Baba Yara Stadium has, therefore, become a routine for him, and whether rain or shine, he finds himself there to join some of his former playmates who are still alive, and have made the stadium, named after one of their brilliant playmates- the late Baba Yara their second home.
