I have started farming and currently harvesting maize from my farm – Ex-Kotoko star Daniel Nii Adjei

Former Asante Kotoko and TP Mazembe midfielder Daniel Nii Adjei has disclosed that he has resorted to farming and he is currently harvesting maize from his farmland in the absence of football activities in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The football activities are still on the break due to the outbreak of the novel disease and there is no sign that football will be returning soon in Ghana after the President extended ban on social gatherings.

Some of the local-based players have been engaging in other activities in order to earn something for a living due to unpaid salaries. Clubs are struggling to pay players due to lack of money as a result of the deadly disease.

Speaking to Accra-based Angel FM on his engagements in the absence of football, the King Faisal experienced midfield said indicated that,

“Due to the COVID-19 and absence of football, I started some farm and currently I’m harvesting maize. I can’t say because of COVID-19, I’ll sit at home and be hungry while there’s rain and fertile land available”

Football activities have been on suspension since 16 March 2020 due to the disease. However, a decision is yet to be made on the future of the suspended 2019-20 Ghana football season.
