We will reconstruct Ho Sports Stadium into a modern facility - President Mahama
President John Dramani Mahama announced plans to transform the Ho Sports Stadium into a modern multi-purpose sporting facility as Ghana prepares to mark its 70th anniversary next year. He made this announcement during an inspection tour of ongoing redevelopment works at the stadium in the Volta Region, where he assessed progress on efforts to upgrade the facility to meet FIFA Category B standards. President Mahama stated, "As we know Ghana celebrates its 70th anniversary next year, and so we wonder by the time this stadium is also 70 years, we would have reconstructed it into a very modern facility."
The redevelopment project is part of the government's broader agenda to improve sports infrastructure across the country and position key venues to host major national and international competitions. The Ho Sports Stadium has experienced years of neglect, with issues including a deteriorating playing surface, flooding, and ageing spectator stands affecting its ability to host top-level football matches. President Mahama believes the stadium's strategic location and availability of surrounding land provide an opportunity to develop it into a world-class sports and entertainment center. He explained that the government will provide funding, complete architectural designs, and engage stakeholders before the commencement of full construction works.
