NPP-Kufuor legacy
In a post on X after the unveiling ceremony on Friday, March 1, Dr Bawumia stated that the stadium and rugby field indicate Ghana's preparedness to host Africa's most fantastic sports festival for the first time in the country's history.
"The completion of the University of Ghana Stadium, which was started by the government of President J A Kufuor but was abandoned by successive governments for eight years, is exciting for two reasons. It is not only going to be the main centre for the African Games, but the facility is also a fitting legacy to the University of Ghana as it marks its 75th Anniversary," Bawumia said on X.
