The Minister for Youth and Sports in Ghana, Mustapha Ussif, has received a petition from the organizers of the ‘Save Ghana Football Demonstration.’
A group of prominent journalists led a march in the capital city, Accra, on Wednesday, February 14, to demand that those responsible for football administration in the country carry out their duties properly.

“Today, I received a petition from the organizers of the ‘Save Ghana Football Demonstration.’ I appreciate the concerns raised by the demonstrators and assure you that we are taking them seriously. We will engage with the leadership of the group to understand their grievances and work towards finding lasting solutions,” the Sports Minister said.
Mustapha Ussif added, “Your voices have been heard, and together, we will work towards revitalizing Ghanaian football for the benefit of all. Thank you for your passion and commitment to our beloved sport. #SaveGhanaFootball.”
