Your introduction to the picture could be a bit misleading. Certainly young boys all over the world and that is not unexpected, however Sekondi-Takoradi, a town that I visited about 10 years ago, is not too far for the Ivorian border.

Not for sure of course. Also, Didier Drogba is the greatest African footballer at the moment, so the chance to see him if only for a minute could be a reason for anyone. I think it is a good idea.
