Ghana’s Education Minister, Haruna Iddrisu, has every reason to be proud as his 20-year-old son, Wunnam Iddrisu, has taken a bold step into the world of business.
On Thursday, October 2, 2025, Wunnam officially launched his own sports agency, Kick Nation Sports Agency, in a grand ceremony that has caught the attention of many Ghanaians. This is was announced on the official Facebook page of Haruna Iddrisu.
The young entrepreneur arrived at the event in a well-tailored suit, looking confident and ready for the big day. The launch attracted several notable figures in Ghana’s sports and entertainment industry.
Legendary Black Stars striker Asamoah Gyan, his brother Baffour Gyan, and former midfielder Emmanuel Agyemang Badu were all present to show their support. Many sports journalists and influencers also attended, making the occasion even more remarkable.

Not much was known about Wunnam before this launch.
