Hassan Ayariga Says He Would Have Become One Of The World’s Best Players Had He Pursued His Football Career

‘Mr Ayarikof’- Hassan Ayariga became a source of comic relief during the 2012 Presidential elections, and since then he strives very hard to maintain that reputation.
After losing the PNC Presidential candidates race for the 2016 elections to Dr Edward Mahama , he left to form his own party, the All Perople’s Congress (APC). He seems determined to remain a clowning force in Ghana’s political affairs.
Speaking with TV3, the brother of Mahama Ayariga noted that growing up, they both excelled at football. He added that had it not been for circumstances stopping him from playing, he would probably have become one of the best players the world has ever seen.
I am not even kidding.
“I will be very sincere with you that anytime I play a soccer game I always score a goal so if I had followed football; I would have been one of the best players in the world.
“My brother, Mahama Ayariga and I were very good footballers so we played a soccer game between our town (Bawku) and Bolga in which my brother was stamped and had a crack in the bone.
“This led to our father forbidding us from playing football again but as young people, we sometimes sneaked out to play with our friends. I can confidently say that I still score goals till date when I am fielded in a team to play football”.
