C.K Gyamfi laid to rest

The mortal remains of Ghana soccer legend, C.K. Gyamfi, were laid to rest at his hometown, Okorase, in the Eastern Region last Saturday.

The state burial was preceded by a memorial and thanksgiving service at the State House in Accra where he was laid in state last Friday for Ghanaians to pay their last respect.

The late C.K. Gyamfi was three times winner of the Africa Nations Cup with the Black Stars, once as a player and coach in 1963 and twice as coach in 1965 and 1982.

Members of the football fraternity, past Presidents of Ghana, as well as members of his immediate family, paid glowing tributes in his honour.
