The Public Relations Officer at the Ministry of Youth and Sports, Elvis Adjei-Baah, says his outfit is not aware of the Confederation of Africa Football decision to strip Ghana of hosting the 2018 Africa Women Cup of Nations Championship.
Ghana is scheduled to host the women championship slated from 17th November to 1st December 2018.
The PRO said they have not received any formal communication from CAF, hence preparations for the competition would remain on course.
“It is not true, neither am I aware of such information."
"The ministry has not been informed of any action yet," Elvis Adjei-Baah said.
However, he stressed that the ministry is engaging FIFA to find possible ways in solving the problem facing Ghana football, as FIFA has agreed to meet our team, led by Minister for Youth and Sports Mr. Isaac Kwame Asiamah, Minister for Youth and Sports.
“FIFA is coming down to meet governments delegation."
"The government would tell FIFA the current situation in our football circles and seek available solutions."
“The other members who would join Mr. Asiamah later."
"We want our football back as soon as possible,” he added.
Meanwhile, FIFA's new director of development for Africa and the Caribbean, Veron Mosengo-Omba, Niger FA President Hamidu Zibrela and Solomon Modegbe have been appointed by Federation of International Football (FIFA) to oversee the crisis that has afflicted the governance of the game in Ghana.
The three-member committee will arrive in the country today ahead of the meeting on Friday.
