Board Chairman of the National Sports Authority Hon. Kwadwo Baah Agyaman says the Ghana Football Association and clubs belonging to the Association are disqualified from benefiting from the Government of Ghana’s Stimulus package, and should therefore forget about it.
The former Asante Akyem North member of Parliament in addressing a number of issues relating to sports in Ghana maintained that the Ghana FA is not a small or medium scale institute.
He said the Sports Authority is working with the National Youth Authority to provide packages to the sporting fraternity which is separate from the over 600,000,000 Ghana Cedis Stimulus package.
“All I can say is that the Football people are disqualified from the package, the Ghana FA is a big institution that makes millions of Dollars from World Cup participation, and this cannot be said to be a medium scale industry” he told Asempa FM.
“Some of the clubs could fall under the scale of Small or medium industry, but I can tell you Football is not part of the package” he continued.
There has been several commentary in the Ghanaian media whether Football is considered part of the package.
