President Okraku has declared war on the illicit involvement of betting companies in Ghana Premier League matches, stressing that no bookmaker has been officially sanctioned to offer odds on these games.

The recent exposure of GPL matches on betting platforms has raised eyebrows, evoking memories of the infamous AshantiGold versus Inter Allies match-fixing scandal that marred the 2020/21 season.

Addressing the GFA’s 30th Ordinary Congress, Okraku unveiled a bold plan to tackle this menace, revealing that the GFA’s legal eagles will take on betting companies directly to halt these practices.

“We won’t stand idly by while betting companies feast on our football,” he declared. “It’s time to draw a line in the sand. We’re open to partnerships, but only on our terms. We’ll invite companies willing to play by the rules to join us.”

As the new GPL season kicks off on September 6, the GFA’s decisive stance aims to restore the league’s integrity and trust, ensuring a level playing field for all teams.

The battle against unauthorized betting has begun, and the GFA is ready to take on all comers.

Promoting your music in Ghana now is expensive – Flowking Stone

Ghanaian musician Flowking Stone lamented that promoting music in Ghana has become increasingly challenging. He attributed this to the shift in the music industry’s financial dynamics.

Previously, producers funded music promotion, but with the rise of the internet and decline of CD sales, producers turned to producing movies, leaving artists to self-fund their promotions. This led to the emergence of “Indi artistes” who bear the financial burden of promoting their music.

In an interview with Giovani Caleb on 3FM Drive, Flowking Stone explained that artists now struggle to cover the costs of promotion, including paying dancers, radio, and TV slots, and running digital ads.

Although record labels have re-emerged, the situation remains difficult for most artists who lack the financial resources. The rapper highlighted the irony of social media platforms like TikTok, which offer a lifeline for artists but also charge exorbitant fees for promotion.

Flowking Stone’s experiences reflect the challenges faced by many Ghanaian musicians in the ever-changing music industry landscape.

In an interview with FIFA Media, Appiah highlighted how timing played a crucial role in his career success, stating, “In this profession, patience and a keen eye for detail are essential, and my opportunity came at just the right time.”

He also shared his pride in being a pioneer among African coaches and expressed admiration for others who have followed in his footsteps, like Senegal’s Aliou Cissé. “It’s gratifying to see others achieve similar milestones. The success of Aliou Cissé makes me particularly proud,” Appiah said.

Now at the helm of Sudan’s national team, Appiah is optimistic about the future of African coaching and is determined to lead Sudan to the next World Cup. “I am confident we can make it happen,” he declared.

Kobena Woyome, Ranking Member of Parliament’s Youth, Sports, and Culture Committee, has disclosed that Ghana spent a staggering $15 million on feeding athletes during the 2023 African Games.

According to a document provided to the parliamentary committee, this expenditure was incurred over a span of just 18 days.

In an interview with Joy Sports, Woyome emphasized that the committee is seeking further details and plans to launch an investigation into this substantial spending.

“With a total expenditure of $245 million, it’s alarming to learn that $15 million was allocated solely for athlete meals over 18 days,” Woyome remarked.

The committee aims to verify the number of participating athletes and other pertinent details related to this expenditure.

This revelation comes amid ongoing disputes over broadcasting rights for the African Games. Sports Minister Mustapha Ussif had previously stated that $3 million was paid to the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation (GBC) for coverage of the 13th African Games.

However, GBC Director-General Professor Amin Alhassan has contested this figure, stating that the broadcaster received only $105,000.

Six companies, including PSG, Quality Media Production S.L., The Production Room (TPR), Silicon Productions, GBC’s 24-hour African Games Channel (Support), and Positive Communication, were the recipients of recent payments.

A memo, reportedly signed by GBC Director-General Professor Amin Alhassan, outlines the funds distribution: PSG received 2,056,534 euros, $1 million was allocated to Quality Media Production S.L., Silicon Productions got $165,000, and GBC’s 24-hour channel was allocated $105,000.

These figures challenge earlier statements made by Sports Minister Mustapha Ussif, who informed the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) that $3 million had been directly paid to GBC for game broadcasts. Professor Alhassan denied this, emphasizing that GBC only received $105,000, leading to further questions.

In response, the Youth and Sports Ministry clarified that $2.5 million was transferred to GBC in two separate installments, with an additional $1 million distributed to third parties as per GBC’s directions.
