Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
The Presidential entrance of the Accra Sports Stadium has been transformed into a junkyard, with roughly seven weeks remaining until Ghana’s 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
The Black Stars welcome Chad at home, and the venue, which held the last competitive game for the nation, seems to be in poor condition.
During a JoySports tour of the stadium, the playing surface is well-maintained for matches, but important areas surrounding the venue are not inviting for officials, guests, and spectators.
The path to the Presidential entrance is cluttered with broken machines, refrigerators, damaged plastic chairs, tables, and various other waste materials left behind.
The Stadium’s water source, as well as the electricity room, is not particularly impressive either.
The room is devoid of light, with wires strewn about everywhere, and a hole is even excavated in a small area.
The space adjacent to the scoreboard light serves as another illustration, congested with grime and pockmarked by rat holes.
What appears even more concerning are the fissures, showing how fragile the structure has turned.
The restrooms lack proper upkeep, emitting a nearly intolerable odor.
The offices, including the one belonging to the Head of the Technical Department, are in awful shape, featuring disconnected power, damaged ceilings, and broken tiles.
The Ghana Project Monitoring Group (GPMG) is a committed organization focused on promoting awareness regarding ineffective and neglected projects nationwide.
They are optimistic about working with the Sports Ministry to tackle the problems of dirtiness and neglect.
“Our motive is to draw the attention of the authorities and government that there’s something wrong here and what can we do,” member of GPMG Ernest Banama told JoySports.
“Not only drawing the attention, we use our own hands to start something and wait for the government to assist us.”
