Ex Sports minister urges more unearthing of talents
Ex Sports Minister Rashid Pelpuo has asked the
Ghana FA to do more in the area of unearthing more
football talents for the various national teams.

The Deputy Majority Leader in Parliament was
speaking at the launch of this year’s FA Cup
Competition on Friday in Accra.

According to Pelpuo, more efforts should be made
to sustain the country’s first passion by way of
producing and churning out more budding talents to
serve the national course.

“Football is the number one passion of this
country with the second being politics,” he
said.

“The FA Cup is a good avenue where talents are
unearthed and therefore will urge the GFA to bring
up more of such competitions to ensure the
sustained development of football in the country.

“The importance of football was epitomized
recently in the house (Parliament) where
statements were made to encourage our young men to
do even better to ensure the name of Ghana keeps
rising.”

This year’s FA Cup is epected to kickoff on
December 13 and is being sponsored by
telecommunication giants MTN.
