Sports Ministry needs effective organiser - Ayariga

Former sports minister Mahama Ayariga has said one needs to be an effective organiser to be successful at that ministry.

The Bawku MP, who succeeded Elvis Afriyie Ankrah after the Black Stars’ disappointing performance in Brazil, spent eight months at the ministry before being reshuffled by President John Mahama a few weeks ago.

“I don’t regret being at the ministry of youth and sports, but I must admit that it is a ministry that has a lot of organisational challenges and for one to be able to get things going one must be a very effective organiser to ensure things go on well there,” Ayariga told Ultimate FM in Kumasi.

Dr. Mustapha Ahmed succeeded Ayariga.
