The Minister-designate for Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams has assured Ghanaians that if approved, he will evolve modalities to cater for the needs of retired footballers.
According to him, the current financial and health status of some of these retirees leaves much to be desired. "We will encourage active sportsmen to contribute to a pension scheme.
If I am approved, we will come out with modalities to see what we can do for those who have retired," he assured.
Mr Adams said this in response to a question by MP for Weija-Gbawe, Jerry Ahmed Shaib on January 30.
