The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has come under fire after videos revealing the poor interior condition of buses donated to local football clubs surfaced online, sparking outrage among football enthusiasts.
Former President of Techiman City FC, Charles Ntim, shared images of the dilapidated interior of a bus presented to New Edubiase United in a scathing Facebook post. The visuals have since triggered widespread criticism, with many fans labeling the gesture a failure and a blemish on Ghanaian football.
In footage circulating on social media, GFA President Kurt Okraku was seen presenting keys to the buses, part of an initiative designed to ease transportation challenges and motivate teams.
The beneficiary clubs include:
