Nana Aba Anamoah goes on a rant over poor Baba Yara Sports Stadium pitch

Renowned broadcaster, Nana Aba Anamoah, has entreated Black Stars players to boycott their next home game over poor pitch conditions.

In a post on X, Nana Aba suggested that the players should be vocal about certain situations and only agree to play if the pitches are fixed to the required standard.

"For me, the players should boycott the next game if that pitch is not fixed. (But who am I, in Wontumi’s voice)," she wrote.

"The players need to speak up against the greed, lies, and disregard for what’s right. How is the FA comfortable with that pitch?"

The Baba Yara Stadium was given conditional approval to host the game after the National Sports Authority failed to get the stadium to the required standard after hosting a five-day church event.

Black Stars head coach Otto Addo, after the defeat to Angola, pointed out that the awful state of the pitch contributed to the team’s lacklustre performance.

"It was unlucky for Mumin, but we made some errors even before that situation. But the pitch was not good, and we can’t overlook that," he said.

Ghana began the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers with a 1-0 home defeat at the Baba Yara Stadium. This was the team’s first loss in 24 years at the venue.

They will be hoping to get back to winning ways in their second group game against Niger on Monday, September 9.
