Speaking at a Press briefing, the former NPP Presidential hopeful said sports development was part of the ten pillars which would help sustain his GTP.
He said developing sports in all aspects of the country would go a long way to change Ghana’s economic woes and also deal with poverty.
He said his administration would encourage the participation of the private sector to create sports infrastructure across the country to make this dream possible.
“In this regard, Government would encourage the participation of the private sector in the development of sports infrastructure around the country.”
Mr. Kyerematen said the introduction of sports academies would help to unearth young talents who would represent the various national teams years to come.
