Some intriguing signs were on exhibit on Wednesday during the “Save Ghana Football” protest in Accra.
To save Ghana’s faltering football business, the demonstrators are calling for the adoption of extreme measures.
The 2023 Africa Cup of Nations group stage exit for the Black Stars is the third major event in a row in which the squad has not advanced past the first round.
After taking over as head of the Ghana Football Association five years ago, Kurt Okraku is currently looking for his sixth Black Stars coach.
Beginning at the Obra Spot at the Kwame Nkrumah Interchange, the protest moved via Asylum Down, the Greater Accra Regional Hospital, and an attempt was made to deliver a petition to the Sports Ministry, however the police blocked their path.
The protest organizers then gave the media a reading of their petition in Independence Square.
Placards with slogans like “stop spoiling our bets” and “we used to be Brazilians of Africa, what happened?” are among the fervent pleas for the Ghana Football Association to clean up the mess in the nation’s collapsing football sector.
