The Ghana Football Association (GFA) President, Kurt Okraku, revealed during a recent appearance before Parliament's Select Committee on Youth and Sports that the country's 20 national football teams have been sharing a single bus since 2008. This bus, purchased by the GFA, has now broken down, forcing the association to hire additional vehicles for team transportation.
Okraku informed the committee that all of Ghana's national teams, including the men's Black Stars, women's Black Queens, and the other 18 sides, have been utilizing this single bus. The breakdown of the bus has become a major logistical challenge for the GFA, requiring them to rent buses during recent international windows. Okraku emphasized that the lack of proper infrastructure and equipment investment has hindered Ghana's ability to consistently achieve success across different generations of national teams.
He believes addressing these fundamental challenges is crucial for building a sustainable football ecosystem in the country.
