Kofi Adams, Member of Parliament for Buem Constituency
Minister-designate for Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams, has expressed his commitment to making a meaningful impact in his new role.
The Member of Parliament for the Buem Constituency was nominated by President Mahama on Tuesday, January 21, 2025.
In a recent interview with Kasapa FM, Adams spoke candidly about his vision, goals, and the challenges ahead as he works to reform and revitalize sports in Ghana.
He emphasised his dedication to the task, pledging to give his best to restore the country’s sports sector.
“When the responsibility is entrusted to me, I will do my best and pray for God’s blessing to achieve success. Every leader must be prepared to face challenges. My focus will be on uniting fans and fostering a positive atmosphere for sports,” Adams stated.
He added, “It’s an opportunity for me to transform the love people have for football into something meaningful. Right now, they love the game, but we’ve failed to channel that passion into anything productive.”
Adams also urged the media to actively engage with football fans, encouraging them to share their concerns about the current state of sports in the country.
He highlighted the importance of collaboration between fans, the media, and club administrators to ensure a collective effort to revive Ghanaian sports.
“The media must ask fans if they’re satisfied with the state of our sports. Otherwise, we’ll be left with only European sports while ours fades away. We need to generate positive energy. And to the managers of these clubs, do you want to wait until there’s nothing left? Rivalries and divisions have caused the decline of sports in this country. The time to act is now,” Adams cautioned.
