The Minister of Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams, has revealed that a new Sports Levy is set to be presented to Parliament when the House reconvenes.

According to the Sports Minister, the levy is being introduced as a key component in the government’s strategy to sustainably finance sports development across the country.

Speaking in an interview with Citi News on Tuesday, October 7, Mr. Adams explained that the proposed levy will serve as the primary source of funding for the soon-to-be-established Sports Development Fund.

Meanwhile, Kofi Adams added that the Black Stars have been fully resourced and must secure a convincing win against the Central African Republic in their crucial World Cup qualifier on Wednesday.

Mr. Adams stressed that much is at stake and nothing short of victory will be accepted.

“I expect the Black Stars to do nothing but win and win convincingly because we need that win to safeguard our presence in the US, Canada, and Mexico for the World Cup,” he said.

He added that the government has made the necessary investments to ensure the players are well-prepared and comfortable going into the match.
