Minister for Sports and Recreation Kofi Adams has dismissed claims by a South African athlete that competitors faced poor living conditions and food rationing during the 24th African Senior Athletics Championships in Accra.
Speaking to the media after appearing before Parliament’s Public Accounts Committee on Monday, May 18, the Minister said athletes were adequately catered for throughout the competition.
His comments follow complaints by South African shot put athlete Aiden Smith, who alleged that athletes were served limited food portions and housed under poor conditions during the championship held at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium.
