President Simeon-Okraku will be in the stands as Ghana's Black Satellites take on the Flying Eagles of Nigeria in a match of epic proportions at the Stade de Kégué in Lome, Togo. Kick off 19:00 GMT.

While both Ghana and Nigeria have secured qualification to the U-20 Africa Cup of Nations next year,  the clash between two of West Africa’s football powerhouses evoke emotions with a sub-regional title and bragging rights at stake.

The Black Satellites are determine to reclaim the title from the current holders, Nigeria,  in what promises to be an absorbing final in Lome on Wednesday evening.
