Sports News of Thursday, 25 August 2016Source: The FinderBlack Stars is the best brand in Ghana – GNPCAlex Mould, GNPC CEOThe CEO of the Ghana National Petroleum Corporation, Alex Mould, has defended his outfit’s continuous association with the senior national soccer team, the Black Stars, describing it as the best brand in the country. GNPC is currently the headline sponsor of the Black Stars, doling out US$3 million annually as a sponsorship package for the team. Speaking on The Ghana Report, hosted by Bernard Avle on Viasat One television earlier this week, Alex Mould said GNPC has benefited immensely from its association with the Black Stars, adding that it intends to continue sponsoring the national team despite criticism from some quarters that GNPC could put its money to better use. “We are happy with our association with the Black Stars. It is the best brand in Ghana, and if we don’t sponsor them, a foreign entity like Tullow will do and demand tax rebate from government for it”.
