Not the first time

This is not the first time a Ghanaian athlete or delegate has gone missing after the Commonwealth Games. During the 2018 games in Australia, two athletes were confirmed by the Badminton Association of Ghana to have ran away from camp as they did not return with the contingent.

Gifty Mensah and Stella Amasah were the athletes who went missing after the Australia Games.
