According to the GFA President, the GFA Medical Team, General Secretary and the Competitions Department have presented sound proposals to Government through the Government Advisory Team on COVID-19 as well as the Sports Ministry.

“The Ministry of Health, the Ghana Health Service and the Government of Ghana have been very open and supportive in these deliberations,” Mr. Okraku said in a press statement.
