Former Ghana Football Association vice President, George Afriyie was present at Christian Atsu's house to mourn with the family and also signed the book of condolence.

The 31 year old Ghanaian winger tragically passed away following an earthquake that hit Turkey on February 6, 2023. 

After almost two weeks of being trapped under rubbles, his lifeless body was found at his apartment last Saturday and was officially confirmed dead.
 
The news was really hard to be accepted by the football world who emotionally paid tribute to Atsu, not only because of what he's done on the pitch but also his great contribution to humanity. He was really known with philanthropy.
 
George Afriyie, who aspired for the main seat in the last GFA elections, was part of the local officials that accompanied Atsu's body from Turkey to Ghana and has finally appeared to sympathize with the family.
 
Former Ghanaian footballers like Stephen Appiah, Asamoah Gyan, Sulley Muntari, Baffour Gyan, Agyemang Badu, Haminu Dramani, Samuel Inkoom and more were all present at his family house couple of days ago to sign the book of condolence.
 
Liberian President and former Ballon D'or winner, George Oppong Weah has also sent his condolences and offered $10k support to the family of the deceased.
 
Christian Atsu's mortal remains arrived in the country last Sunday with his one week observation scheduled for March 4, 2023.
