Football journey
Henry Lawerteh, a citizen of Ada Toflokpo, a suburb of the Ada West District, is excited to join the world's most popular and, arguably, one of the highest-paying professions the globe can testify about.
His contribution to this profession and incarnation is confined to his courage and willingness to take fault.
Still young, Henry watches the senior national team, the Black Stars, the talented young goalkeeper is inspired to pursue a football career.
As a young prodigy, he plays football to fulfill the obvious goalie role and prevent his team's opponents from scoring goals.

He anticipates earning a call-up to feature in the goalpost for the senior national team, the Black Stars after the requisite football experience.
Every Ghanaian footballer supports both local and European clubs.
Henry is ambitious to play for Accra Hearts of Oak, his favorite local club, to support and watch the team play. Despite his age, he is Ghana's 2009 Under-20 World Cup champion Daniel Adjei's outstanding performance.
Henry's local role model is Daniel Adjei, a former Liberty Professional save peer of hands.
Most African players still see European trade as their ultimate goal. Henry envisions himself retaining the position for Real Madrid, a team he loves, much like Andre Onana does for Manchester United and Edouard Mendy does for Chelsea Football team.
The hardworking goalkeeper will be gracious to rise to Thibaut Nicolas Marc Courtois, a fit that requires more work and commitment.
