Stay out of World Cup visa probe to avoid interfering with CID investigations – Ernest Norgbey to politicians
The call comes days after President John Mahama suspended the Director General of the National Sports Authority (NSA), Yaw Ampofo Ankrah, over his alleged involvement in an investigation into a $623,000 visa facilitation fee.
The Minority in Parliament has called for the immediate dismissal and prosecution of the Minister for Sports and Recreation, Kofi Eddie Adams, and the Chief Executive of the Ghana Tourism Authority (GTA) over their alleged involvement in the 2026 FIFA World Cup visa scandal.
He also noted that President John Mahama had already directed the National Sports Authority (NSA) boss, Yaw Ampofo-Ankrah, to step aside to allow investigations into the matter.
