Midfielder Emmanuel Kwame Keyekeh is on the verge of becoming a Tanzanian citizen, relinquishing his Ghanaian citizenship in the process.
Keyekeh, who currently plays for Singida Black Stars SC in Tanzania, has completed the necessary paperwork in Ghana, with his Ghanaian passport now forwarded to the Director of Passports for cancellation.
According to sources close to the player, the Ghanaian Ministry of the Interior has officially approved and signed the relevant documents. The final step in the process is the issuance of a Tanzanian passport by the Tanzanian Ministry, which is expected soon.
The news marks a significant change for the player, who will now be eligible to represent Tanzania internationally, should he be called upon. Keyekeh’s decision to pursue Tanzanian citizenship underscores his commitment to his career in the country.
Keyekeh’s move to Tanzania and his subsequent application for citizenship has been a developing story in African football circles. The completion of the Ghanaian side of the process brings the saga to a near conclusion. Once the Tanzanian passport is issued, Keyekeh will officially begin his new chapter as a Tanzanian citizen.
