A group of spirited Bukom boxers have thrown down a bold challenge to outspoken political commentator, Okatakyie Afrifa, warning him not to step into the ring if he dares attend the upcoming boxing event organized by Sharaf Mahama, son of President John Dramani Mahama.
In a video circulating online (full clip available in the comments section), the boxers, known for their fiery energy and proud Bukom roots, passionately called out Afrifa, claiming he had made disrespectful remarks about the former president and the initiative being undertaken by his son.
“If you step into Bukom, we will show you what real boxing looks like,” one of the boxers declared. “This is not radio – this is the ring!”
The comments come ahead of a highly anticipated community boxing exhibition led by Sharaf Mahama, aimed at promoting youth empowerment, discipline, and national unity through sports. The event has garnered wide public interest, especially in boxing circles across Accra.
While Afrifa has not officially responded to the challenge, the heated exchange has added even more excitement to the upcoming event, blending sports with political drama in classic Ghanaian style.
As anticipation builds, all eyes are on the Bukom arena—not just for punches, but for the passion and pride that makes Ghanaian boxing culture so unique.
