Parliament approves Kofi Adams as Minister for Sports and Recreation

Parliament has confirmed Hon. Kofi Adams as Ghana's new Minister for Sports and Recreation, sparking hope for positive change in the sports sector.

Adams inherits a challenging landscape, with inadequate infrastructure and declining participation across various sports. A key focus of his tenure will be improving the maintenance of sports facilities, which have long hindered talent development and athlete performance. Adams aims to rejuvenate Ghanaian sports by prioritizing facility upgrades and ensuring wider access for athletes.

Additionally, he plans to promote a more inclusive approach to sports, investing in lesser-known disciplines to uncover new talents and boost interest beyond the traditional favorites. Stakeholders are optimistic that Adams' leadership will help elevate sports in Ghana both locally and internationally.
