The National Sports Authority Board Chairman, Seth Panwum, has shared that the pitch at Baba Yara Sports Stadium has shown significant improvement after it was closed following CAF’s decision to revoke the stadium’s license.
The stadium, which last hosted an AFCON qualifier against Angola in September, was shut down due to the poor condition of the pitch and inadequate drainage.
In an exclusive interview with Channel One Sports, Panwum mentioned that soon Kumasi Asante Kotoko and other clubs that use the venue for their home games should be able to resume playing there.
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.
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.
