Eight Regional Football Associations (RFAs) today received Nissan Navarra pickups as part of the FIFA Forward program, an initiative aimed at strengthening football development across the country.
The beneficiary regions were:
- ✅ Brong Ahafo Regional FA
- ✅ Upper West Regional FA
- ✅ Central Regional FA
- ✅ Western Regional FA
- ✅ Eastern Regional FA
- ✅ Upper East Regional FA
- ✅ Volta Regional FA
- ✅ Ashanti Regional FA
These vehicles, provided under FIFA’s flagship development project, are intended to support the day-to-day administrative and operational activities of the RFAs.
The move is part of GFA’s broader vision to decentralize football development and empower regional bodies with the tools they need to function effectively.
The Greater Accra Regional FA and Northern Regional FA are also slated to receive their vehicles as part of a subsequent FIFA Forward program.
President Kurt Edwin Simeon-Okraku, who has been championing infrastructural and logistical upgrades across all levels of Ghana football, expressed confidence that the vehicles would boost efficiency and accessibility in the regions.
This development underscores the GFA’s commitment to maximizing the benefits of international support programs like FIFA Forward to promote grassroots football and ensure that all corners of the country are equipped to contribute meaningfully to the national football agenda.
The President was joined by the Executive Council and the Acting Director-General of the National Road Safety Authority (NRSA), Mr. Abraham Amaliba.
