The President of the Ghana Olympic Committee, Mr. Ben Nunoo Mensah wasted no time in sending a congratulatory message to the team describing them as "gallant athletes and Ambassadors of Ghana".

The Minister for Youth and Sports Mr. Mustapha Ussif has also conveyed a message on behalf of the President and the Sports Ministry.

Ghana's Men Quartet made up of Sean Sarfo-Antwi, Benjamin Azamati-Kwaku, Joseph Oduro Manu and Joseph Paul Amoah finished second with an impressive time of 38.79 seconds behind the Dutch who clocked 38.79 with 782 M/Seconds.
