CAF President Patrice Motsepe blasts Ghana over Baba Yara stadium ban

President of the Confederation of African Football, Patrice Motsepe, has hit hard at Ghana after the Baba Yara Sports stadium ban. 

CAF, last week, withdrew approval for the Baba Yara Stadium for the October AFCON Qualifiers, leaving Ghana without a single stadium fit to host a CAF category C game.

CAF cited, uneven surfaces, poor drainage, and inadequate grass cover as some reasons for the ban. 

Speaking at a press briefing in Nairobi, Kenya, Motsepe described the situation as frustrating. 

Ghana will face Sudan in a crucial AFCON qualifying double header in October, with Togo or Côte d’Ivoire the likely venue for Ghana’s home leg in the fixture.
