Ibrahim Mahama eyes stadium project for Ghana after talks with Kofi Adams

Ghana could be on the path to a major sports infrastructure boost after Minister of Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams, revealed that businessman Ibrahim Mahama has expressed strong interest in helping fund the construction of a modern stadium in the country.

Speaking through Ghana Football Association (GFA) media, the Minister disclosed that discussions took place during Ghana’s World Cup clash against England, where Mahama raised questions about the cost of building a facility similar to top international stadiums.

“We need to invest in sports infrastructure. I sat with Ibrahim Mahama during Ghana’s game against England and he asked how much it would cost to build a stadium like this,” Kofi Adams said.

According to him, Ibrahim Mahama went further to task officials to provide architectural designs and cost estimates, signalling early steps toward what could become one of Ghana’s most ambitious sporting projects in years.

“He tasked us with getting the design so we can start building one in Ghana,” the Minister added.

The proposed development comes at a time when calls for improved sports infrastructure in Ghana have grown louder, with many arguing that modern facilities are key to supporting both national teams and domestic competitions.

While no official timeline has been confirmed, the discussion has already sparked excitement among fans who see it as a long-overdue step toward upgrading Ghana’s sporting infrastructure to international standards.
