SIBLING MOTIVATION
He is inspired by his brothers Bastie Samir and Issah Samir, who both competed in boxing at the Olympic Games. "I am promising Ghanaians that I will achieve what my brothers could not. They are both Olympians and also African medallists and I am following their footsteps. They always motivated me with what they achieved at international level. They couldn't win medals at the Olympics so I am promising Ghanaians that I will bring back a gold medal." (JoyNews YouTube Channel, 05 Apr 2021; citisportsonline.com, 22 Mar 2021)
