The two-time Olympian won bronze medal in the competition and hoping to improve his time to be able to represent Ghana at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
The Ghana Olympic Committee and Ghana Swimming Association congratulate him.
Jackson is currently Ghana’s national record holder for the 50m butterfly, 200m butterfly, 50m freestyle, 100m freestyle and 200m freestyle.
