The Baba Yara Sports Stadium has been in poor condition for some time
The Baba Yara Sports Stadium is in a deplorable state after footage emerged on social media displaying its current condition.
In a video that has gone viral on social media, specifically X, the grass on the pitch seems to have faded significantly, sparking concerns.
The pitch, which is expected to be watered regularly to maintain its moisture, has turned dry.
The entire pitch is faded, with only small portions occupied by grass, while other fixtures at the facility seem to be in bad shape.
This development has come as a surprise to most football fans, as the stadium had been closed for some time now under the pretext of being renovated. However, it appears less effort is being put into the work.
The stadium was banned by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) from being used to play high-profile international matches for the Black Stars and other teams due to its terrible state at the time.
Meanwhile, the NSA have indicated that plans are underway to renovate the stadium as soon as possible to avoid further deterioration.
