Ghana has an eSports federation!

First there was South Africa, then Namibia, which was quickly followed by Egypt, Zimbabwe, and Tunisia that created National eSports Federations.

However, now there is Ghana under the leadership of the ever energetic Ebenezer Kwesi Hayford.

The Ghanaian eSports Association, which is only one-year old and based in the city of Accra, has already successfully applied for membership of the Confederation of African eSports (CAeS) and is hoping to be accepted into membership of the International eSports Federation (IeSF) later this year.

With the inclusion of Ghana into CAeS, eSports takes another  step forward to be included in the All African Games and further helps create a greater awareness of  eSports as a fully accredited sport among African states.

The addition of yet another African State will also further help Africa compete on a wider international level.
