The National Sports Authority of Ghana has told clubs to stop complaining about the poor facilities available for league and contribute to the maintenance of the various stadia.
Director of the National Sports Authority, Joe Kpenge, who is tired of the incessant allegations of the NSA renting the facilities for huge sums of l money without maintaining them, told the clubs to stop making unrealistic complains.
Mr. Kpenge also revealed that clubs are aware of the financial difficulties the sports authority is encountering, but keep blaming the NSA for the poor maintenance of the stadia.
“It’s not for the football clubs to just complain, they know we have difficulties and they pretend as if somebody from heaven should come and solve the issues with what resources,” Joe Kpenge told Accra-based radio station, Starr FM.
“If we should be earning from gate proceeds of 10% from matches and even they don’t get GHC 10,000 how can you maintain the pitches with this amount.
“Sometimes I think their complaints are unrealistic because they know the challenges of the Ministry and Authority, so they should also start contributing,”
There are reports that the National Sports Authority intend to sell the national stadiums to private institutions, but the National Sports Authority is not ready to comment on the media reports.
