Hackman Abraham the young philanthropist and football lover's third professional soccer gala edition of stars at Kotobabi Wembley park has been called off due to Covid-19.

Sports in most countries has been indefinitely suspended because of the Coronavirus pandemic.

The cluster of football stars who parades at Wembly during the previous editions are backing the promoter to try to set up a new date during the Christmas break if Covid-19 vanishes from mother earth by December.

Last year's edition saw the likes of Anthony Baffoe, Yusif Alhassan Chibsah, Coach Ibrahim Tanko and former Black Star goalkeeper Abubakar Damba grace the event in their own way of appearing on the field of play.

“I’ve already done the first and second edition so coming June was supposed to be the third edition before this pandemic virus outbreak triggered the world,” Hackman said.

“Yes I’ve been talking to the players and they keep expressing to me their sadness of the event not happening because of the coronavirus outbreak.

“After interacting with the players, I want all the football loving fans to stay calm as we’re still preparing to bring them a bigger edition with many new faces coming on board to spicy the upcoming edition.”
