Sulley Muntari set to land in Uganda on Friday for UN programme

The Ghanaian midfielder will arrive in Uganda on Friday to assist former AC Milan teammate Keisuke Honda undertake a United Nations (UN) project.

Muntari played with Keisuke Honda in the same AC Milan team in 2015 and the duo has been close friends since that time.

And the Japanese who happens to be a UN ambassador for  ‘Global Advocate for Youth’ wants to have the former Portsmouth midfielder join him as he embarks on the programme.

Upon his appointment as a UN Advocate for Youth on June 22 last year in Washington DC, Honda was tasked to focus on mobilizing action to address major challenges faced by young people around the world and engaging youth in support of the vital work of the United Nations to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.

Sulley Muntari  went viral months ago when he walked off the pitch after, he suffered racist abuse while playing for Cagliari last season.

The Ghanaian is now a global icon in the battle against racism and his company would be of help in helping Honda reach out to his target group, especially on African soil.
