Interview with K. Manu, 2005 Soccer League MVP

December 2005

prempeh.org: How are you Senior?

Paul Manu: I am fine and celebrating the xmas in a grand style

Paul Manu of Butler, also called K. Manu, who was adjudged the Most Valuable Player in the 2005 League, was awarded not only a personal trophy for keeping, but also an expensive Nike soccer boots. Congratulations to the first form one boy to play on the Ashanti Regional football team.

prempeh.org: You were voted the Most Valuable Player of the Prempeh.org Inter-Houses Soccer League, how do you feel?

Paul Manu: I feel on top of the world. I am very privileged and I thank the organisers for the honour done me.

prempeh.org: There were some form threes who did well but you were chosen. What do you say about that?

Paul Manu: I am very delighted and I know that I did my best to deserve the award. The form threes also did well but they could not make it.

prempeh.org: Before the start of the league, you had a bet with Ahmed and Goloe that you will win the goal scorer award but none of you did so how do you feel about that.

Paul Manu: Even though I could not win the goal king award, I had the most valuable player award and that is a plus to me. To my other competitors, I wish them better luck next time but as you know, I scored more than they (Ahmed and Goloe) did.

prempeh.org: What made you not win the goal king award too since you started so well?

Paul Manu: I did not play in all the matches that was why. I had an injury during one of the matches so could not play all. I missed about 3 of the matches but I know I would have been happier than now if I had won both the goal king and that of the most valuable player.

prempeh.org: Do you think this award will have an impact on your performance?

Paul Manu: It will surely do as I will strive to make it big next academic year.

prempeh.org: What is your message to Amanfoo

Paul Manu: We thank them for all they have done for the college and especially the footballers. More praise goes to the prempeh.org founder, Dr Ofori, for the presents he donated. I think he spent a lot and I hope all the old boys will take a cue from that.
