Kofi Adams welcomes ‘ways and means’ for Black Stars ahead of 2026 World Cup

The Minister for Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams, says he is open to any legitimate methods that could help Ghana prepare well to succeed at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Speaking on the issue of preparations for the tournament, the minister stressed that while he is not against so-called “ways and means” being used to support the Black Stars, every action must remain transparent and properly documented.

According to Kofi Adams, all funds allocated to the Black Stars must be publicly accounted for to ensure transparency and avoid hidden expenditures.

“I’m not opposed to ‘ways and means’ but it must be transparent. If we think that as a country – others are doing science and we want to combine science and this – then we must do it. But in doing it, let us not hide and at the end of the day, we come and see some big budget there,” Kofi Adams said in an interview with SportyFM.

The minister further insisted that every financial transaction linked to the national team should be disclosed to the public.

“Every dollar or cedi that is spent on the Black Stars, the public will know. Any money that cannot be made known, it means it cannot be spent as far as the World Cup is concerned.”

The Black Stars are currently preparing for what will be their fifth appearance at the FIFA World Cup.

Kofi Adams has consistently maintained that financial discipline and transparency will remain central to the government’s approach toward supporting the national team ahead of the tournament.
