Baba Yara Stadium ready to host football matches – NSA board chairman, Seth Panwum.

Date:

Seth Panwum, Chairman of the National Sports Authority (NSA) Board, has confirmed that the Baba Yara Stadium is now ready to host football matches again.

The stadium had been sidelined after the Confederation of African Football (CAF) revoked its license to hold international fixtures due to the poor condition of its playing surface.

Following a period of maintenance, Panwum told Channel One TV that the pitch has been improved and is now up to the required standard.

He stated that soon, Asante Kotoko and other teams will be able to return to play their home matches at the stadium.

“Baba Yara is equally undergoing, let me say, re-turfing, you know, and it has come of age. The grass is up to standard now,” he said.

“With constant working after the game, we would go to Baba Yara as well to have a review of the work so far, then, yes, you know, so that we can attest whether it is ready, then we can allow Kumasi Asante Kotoko to return to the pitch,” he added.
