Dr. Kwaku Ofosu-Asare, Chairman of the Local Organizing Committee (LOC) for the 13th African Games, has emphasized Ghana’s readiness to host the prestigious multi-sport competition.
During an interview with SuperSport ahead of the Games’ commencement on March 8, Dr. Ofosu-Asare assured the nation’s preparedness for the event, which is set to conclude on March 23.
The University of Ghana Stadium and the newly constructed Borteyman Sports Complex have been selected as primary venues for the Games, while the Cape Coast Stadium and Accra Sports Stadium will host football competitions.
Assessing Ghana’s readiness, Dr. Ofosu-Asare stated, “Everything is ready, the facilities and the arrangements to host all those who are coming, we are really there we have put everything in place to host the entire continent.
“The facilities at Borteyman are ready. At Legon we have also upgraded all the facilities.”
The 2023 African Games will serve as qualifiers for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games in at least eight sports disciplines, making it a particularly significant event.
With preparations in their final stages, Ghana is optimistic about successfully hosting the continental event and making a significant contribution to the advancement of sports across Africa.
