Covid-19: Hope for football community stimulus package not lost - Ghana FA president Okraku

Ghana Football Association (GFA) president Kurt Okraku has revealed all is not over for the sports community's hopes of benefiting from a Government of Ghana stimulus package in the wake of the Covid-19 disturbances.

With many activities and entities disrupted by the disease, the Ghanaian government has made funds available to alleviate the suffering of businesses.

The GFA, together with the Ghana Ministry of Youth and Sports (MoYS) and the Ghana League Clubs Association (Ghalca), presented a joint-proposal for the consideration of the football community on the disbursement of the funds, but the request was ignored as the government released its first tranche, incurring the wrath of many industry players.
