Dutch-born Ghanaian defender Jeremie Frimpong has described his benevolent act at the Osu Children’s Home on boxing day as “the best feeling he’s ever had.”
Frimpong touched down in Ghana—the country of his parents—for the first time on Sunday night after revealing he was soon to visit the country earlier in December.
As part of his one-week holiday trip and stay in Ghana, the Leverkusen wingback, in a bid to give back to society, visited the Osu Children’s Home in Accra on Thursday.
The Osu Children’s Home has long served as the abode for abandoned kids, orphans, and less privileged children.
Frimpong donated essential commodities such as drinks, water, among others, for the upkeep of the kids.
Speaking to the media after providing the kids with basic amenities, Frimpong said: “This is really like the best feeling. It is more of a best feeling than scoring a goal. Making these little kids happy, they forget about their situation; they just focus on joy. And for me, I can bring this joy to the kids; this is the best feeling I’ve ever had.”
The estimated items donated to the children are expected to be north of GH?30,000.
Frimpong will head back to Germany over the weekend to resume Bundesliga action with his club, Bayer Leverkusen, after a brief hiatus as a result of the festive period.
