Flings Owusu-Agyapong To Be Team Ghana Flag Bearer

Sprinter Flings Owusu-Agyapong will carry the flag of Ghana at the Rio 2016 Opening Ceremony on Friday, 5th August, 2016.
The announcement was made at Team Ghana’s maiden meeting at the Olympic Games village in Rio on Wednesday by Ghana’s Chef de Mission, Chris Essilfie.
