The Government of Ghana has come under scrutiny for reportedly renting a private training facility for the Black Stars ahead of their crucial 2026 World Cup qualifier game against the Central African Republic.

This decision has raised eyebrows, especially considering the presence of a newly constructed multipurpose stadium in the Ashanti Region, which has remained unused since its inauguration in 2020.

Sports journalist Saddick Adams has highlighted the government's questionable choice, pointing out that the 5,000-seater multipurpose stadium, built at a cost of around $40 million, has been left to rot in the bush.

This facility, located just a stone's throw away from Kumasi, was inaugurated a week before the 2020 elections but has not been opened to the public or utilized for any significant events since then.

Adams, along with his team, recently visited the site and documented its current state of disrepair.

In a statement, Saddick Adams expressed his bewilderment and frustration at the situation. "Why," he simply asked.

The Black Stars' recent match against the Central African Republic, held at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi, saw Ghana triumph with a 3-2 victory.
