Former President of Ghana, John Dramani Mahama, has sharply criticised the sitting President, Nana Akufo-Addo, following the Ghana FA’s announcement that the Confederation of African Football (CAF) has rejected the Baba Yara Stadium due to its poor condition.

In response to the situation, President Nana Akufo-Addo has called for the dismissal of the National Sports Authority (NSA) boss, Dodzie Numekevor
