Indomie supports Ghana's Fastest Human event

Ghana’s Fastest Human 2014 event has clinched another sponsorship deal with Indomie Instant Noodles Ghana.

The programme, aimed at unearthing athletes in the country at a tender age, has already attracted Standard Chartered Bank and five other sponsors. Indomie is, therefore, expected to provide meals for the about 2,000 expected spectators to converge on the El-Wak stadium on November 29  for the talent-hunt exercise. 

The other companies are GIPC, Finali Ventures Real Estate, Pippas Gym, Bel Aqua Mineral Water, Wrenco Printing Press and Mukaase Kitchen.

Ms Alice Awuah, Events Manager of Indomie, told the Daily Graphic that the company’s involvement in the programme was to assist Ghanaian athletics to return to its glorious days.

Since the launch of the programme last year, five promising athletes have been discovered and given full athletics scholarship from the Ghana Athletics Association (GAA) to study in the US.

Two of those athletes represented Ghana at the recent Commonwealth Games and the African Athletics Championships.

The Ghana's Fastest Human programme is collaborating with the Ghana Education Service (GES) to pick the best athletes from the regions to compete in  the Ghana’s Fastest Human at the U-17 level.
