Ghanaians love their football and footballers and this coupled with the religious nature of the West African country, Ghanaians continue to pray for a Christian Atsu Miracle in an earthquake that has claimed 17,000 lives and counting.
The belief that Christian Atsu, the Ghanaian International who plies his football trade in Turkey, will be found alive is intact in the minds of everyone at home and abroad.
The earlier report that the player had been rescued alive and taken to a health facility turned out to be false, as the clubs revealed that there was a mistaken identity.

It is almost 4 days and nothing concrete has been heard about Christian Atsu. However, the very religious nation of Ghana has not lost hope that the Former National Team player will be found alive. The faith of the people has not been weakened by the prolonged delay in hearing the good news everyone has been looking forward to.
The people have also called on the Ghanaian Government and the Sports Ministry to do something to help prioritize the search for Christian Atsu. He has been described as a national hero. Others are of the view that his, Club and Turkey as a country has not placed any priority on the young man who is a national asset of Ghana.
Updates sighted by the Ghana Education News team is that Hatayspor has abandoned the search for Christian Atsu and the director and has relocated to Istanbul. Some of Yeni Malatyaspor’s players are still trapped under the rubble. Clearly, the Turkish Teams have given up on players still trapped, and it is now in the hands of the government.
Chris Conway, a UK Journalist’s latest update on Christian Atsu is that he has been in contact with the UK agent of Christian Atsu who has indicated that the player is still missing in southern Turkey, despite reports earlier this week that he’d been rescued. The agent added that the family of the player are desperately awaiting further news.
Whatever the news, and updates, be rest assured that Ghanaians pray for a Christian Atsu Miracle in an earthquake that has claimed 17,000 lives
