The Ghana Armwrestling Federation (GAF), in a bid to promote physical fitness and sports development among security personnel, has met with the leadership of the  Ghana National Fire Service in Accra to discuss partnership in the development and promotion of Armwrestling in the service.

 The GAF, led by its President, Charles Osei Asibey, made its intentions known during the strategic meeting with the Acting Chief Fire Officer, Daniella Mawusi Ntow Sarpong. The engagement focused on strengthening the presence of Armwrestling within the security services, with an emphasis on promoting inclusive participation for both civilians and uniformed personnel.

 The two organisations agreed to work together to identify and nurture talented firefighters with potential in Armwrestling. The Fire Service will form an Armwrestling Club that will provide expert coaching and sports psychology guidance to help athletes develop their skills and become champions. This initiative is expected to not only improve physical fitness among firefighters but also promote teamwork and community engagement.

 "We are excited about this partnership and its potential to promote Armwrestling  development within the Fire Service," said Chief Fire Officer Daniella Mawusi Ntow Sarpong. "We believe that Armwrestling will help our personnel develop the strength, endurance, and agility needed to perform their duties effectively."

 Madam Daniella further directed that the Human Resource Department and Sports Unit of the Fire Service immediately engage with the Ghana Armwrestling Federation to recruit fire officers to participate in the sport. "We want to ensure that our personnel are fit and ready to combat or prevent fires at all times," she emphasised.

 Recalling the Fire Service's past achievements in sports, Chief Fire Officer Daniella Mawusi Ntow Sarpong added, "We have produced quality national athletes in the past, and we will revisit the past by ensuring our officers participate in Armwrestling. We are confident that our personnel will excel in this sport and bring glory to the Ghana National Fire Service and the nation."

 The chief fire officer concluded, "With this partnership, we will produce world champions soon, and this will change the image and narratives of the Ghana National Fire Service. We will show the world that we are not just firefighters, but also champions in sports."

 President Charles Osei Asibey of the Ghana Armwrestling Federation added, "This partnership is a significant step towards promoting Armwrestling in Ghana.

We are confident that the Fire  Armwrestling Club will produce talented athletes who will make us proud on the national and international stage."

 In recognition of her support for sports development and inclusive engagement, Acting Chief Fire Officer Ntow Sarpong was officially named a Patron of the Federation and presented with commemorative medals.

 The visit marks a significant step in deepening collaboration between the Ghana Armwrestling Federation and national security institutions, using the sport as a platform for unity, empowerment, and national cohesion.

 Present were Vice President Dr. Kofi Addo-Agyekum, Secretary General Jesse Agyepong, Board Members Edwin Amankwah, Husseini Akuetteh Addy, Godfrey Amarteifio and media consultant Kenneth Odeng Adade.
