Ghana’s Minister for Youth and Sports Hon. Mustapha Yussif is confident the nation will not spend its coffers on flying supporters to the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
Ghana will play at the World Cup to be hosted in Qatar from November 20 to December 21
The Black Stars are placed in Group H alongside Portugal, South Korea and Uruguay.
As the country keeps suffering dire economic conditions, the Minister has stated that the State will secure funds from Corporate Ghana for the tourney.
“Government is trying to raise funds through Corporate Ghana to help us to take fans to support our Black Stars.
“We will not use State funds for this and that is why we are appealing to corporate Ghana to come to our aid,” he told Citi FM.
Ghana will begin the competition against Portugal on November 24.
This will be the West African nation’s fourth World Cup tourney.
