Ghanaian sports fans have expressed scepticism following the appointment of Kofi Adams as the Minister-designate for Sports and Recreation.
His appointment has come as a shock to some while others are pleased that a familiar face was not nominated for the role.
President John Dramani Mahama nominated Kofi Adams as the Minister-designate of Sports and Recreation in a statement released on January 21, 2024.
The president noted that Kofi Adams will spearhead affairs in the sports sector, as well as recreational activities.
His nomination is pending parliamentary approval after he undergoes the vetting process by the Appointments Committee of Parliament.
