President John Dramani Mahama has emphasized his commitment to ensuring transparency in sports funding, stating that all budgets allocated for national teams must be made public.
During his State of the Nation Address, Mahama stressed that the Ghana Football Association (GFA) must disclose the budget for the Black Stars, as it involves taxpayers' money. "Next month, the senior national team, the Black Stars, now a pale shadow of their former glory will be in action.
I have instructed the Minister for Sports and Recreation to hold the GFA accountable, particularly regarding the team's budget.
There will be no secrecy in how much the government spends on the national team.
