The President is seeking a second term in office and he his facing stiff opposition from the New Patriotic Party’s flagbearer, Nana Akufo Addo.

Presenting the highlights of the National Democratic Congress’ (NDC) 2016 manifesto in Accra on Tuesday, the president revealed that the new stadiums will help boost sports in the country.

He noted that the facilities will be constructed in the Upper East, Upper West, Brong Ahofo, Volta and the Eastern regions.

“We will refurbish the Azuma Nelson Sports complex, formerly Kaneshi Sports Complex. In addition, we will build five new stadia at the Upper East, Upper West, Brong Ahafo, Volta and the Eastern Regions,” the President hinted.

Though Ghana is regarded as one of the shining stars in Africa with regards to sports, the aforementioned regions cannot boast of a State-of-the-Art Stadium.

As it stands, the country has five National stadia in Accra, Kumasi, Tamale, Takoradi and Cape Coast with the Accra, Takoradi and Tamale Stadiums in a very poor state.
