The youth and sports committee of parliament is set to embark on a facts finding visit to Abidjan over concerns from supporters of the senior soccer team the Black star over 300 supporters who were transported to Ivory Coast by the government to cheer on the Black Star at the 2023 African cup of nations have complained that they have not been fed.
Over 300 Ghanaian football supporters who were transported to Abidjan, Ivory Coast, by the government to cheer on the Black Stars at the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) are facing a desperate situation.
Stranded and allegedly abandoned, the fans are now pleading with the Ghanaian government for immediate assistance.
These fans, housed at the Entree Hotel Memi in Abidjan, claim they have been deprived of food, water, and proper communication with Ghanaian authorities.
They claim that the high cost of living in Ivory Coast has further drained their resources, leaving them in a precarious situation.
These supporters were part of a group sent by the Ghanaian government to support the Black Stars.
However, their experience has been far from the promised one. They have been unable to contact officials for assistance, heightening their sense of despair and abandonment.
Speaking to Ahotor news, the ranking member on the education committee on the youth and sports Wisdom Kobla Mensah Woyome said the government must intervene the matter.
