Sanaa:Deputy Presidential Spokesperson Shamima Muslim has stated that the Minister of Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams, will be asked to step aside if investigations find him culpable in the 2026 FIFA World Cup scandal.
According to Ghana Web, the government is committed to allowing the ongoing investigations to establish the facts before making any decisions regarding the Minister's position. Shamima Muslim emphasized that the outcome of the investigations will determine whether the Sports Minister should remain in office.
The situation arises amid allegations concerning Ghana's participation in the 2026 World Cup, with claims of financial impropriety and visa-related issues involving officials who traveled to the United States for the tournament. These allegations have led to calls for thorough investigations, with the government insisting on following due process to establish responsibility.
