Ghana’s Sports Minister-Designate for Sports & Recreation, Kofi Iddie Adams, still has an unresolved issue to probe—the infamous 2018 Australian Visa Scandal that rocked the nation.
The scandal involved eight individuals who travelled to Australia under the pretence of being journalists covering the 2018 Commonwealth Games in Gold Coast.
However, Australian authorities quickly uncovered the deception and deported them after determining they were “fake journalists.” In total, 12 Ghanaians were repatriated during the games, further tarnishing the country’s reputation.
With this issue still lingering, all eyes will be on Kofi Adams to see whether he will take decisive action to investigate and address the lingering questions surrounding this scandal.
“As for the Australian visa scandal, is a matter we will go into and investigate and punish those who must be punished,so the other nations can treat GH🇬🇭 as a serious nation”-Kofi Adams
