Ghana’s Minister for Sports and Recreation, Hon. Kofi Adams, has made it clear that his role extends beyond football, despite his recent engagements with the Ghana Football Association (GFA) and the Black Stars.

Kofi Adam’s statement comes in response to growing criticism that his focus has been primarily on football, following several appearances at football-related events.

Engagements with GFA and Black Stars

Since taking office, Kofi Adams has been actively involved with the GFA, having met with its Executive Council Members and the Black Stars’ technical team. He has also attended Black Stars training sessions as Ghana prepares for the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.

However, in an interview, Adams reiterated that his mandate covers all sports disciplines, not just football.

“I’m not Minister for Football. I’m Minister for Sports and Recreation,” he emphasized.

Kof

Commitment to All Sporting Disciplines

The Buem MP assured Ghanaians that all sports would receive fair attention and support. He emphasized plans to distribute resources equitably across both competitive and non-competitive sports at the national, regional, and grassroots levels.

“Football will continue to have its rightful place, but other sports will also grow.”

His comments seek to address concerns that other sporting disciplines may be sidelined, reinforcing his commitment to developing sports beyond just football in Ghana.
