The capacity at UG is more than 3000 as you stated, the the dressing room seats are short of 3 and the press area can be fixed. Journalists in Ghana are doing everything fir the match to br played outside.
what is the size of UG stadium please ??
according to the article koraa, it states that the UG stadium is 11000
So you are telling me that the sports ministry, akuffu addo, ug president did think of building a stadium that could meet caf requirements oh gh leaders infact your stupidity is legendary.
Gh LEADERS DONT THINK
The 11,000 capacity of the UG stadium instead of 30,000 CAF category 3 requirement alone disqualifies it as a viable option. We're very foolish people in this country. Leadership and all. We can't maintain a single standard s ...

These are all jokes.
We don't just want to play these matches here in Ghana.
Wil the locker rooms take part of playing field?
The media area is not part of the field which was the bone of contention at the Kumasi Stadium.

Nothing jocular here. For a CATEGORY 3 match/stadium, we don't have the facilities for it. I hear the Accra stadium pitch is not leveled, etc etc. We should get serious in this country and stop embarrassing ourselves out ther ...

What happened to the Cape coast stadium ? We really lack a maintenance culture yet we keep craving for new buildings...
The issues u listed are not so serious. They can be easily fixed.
11,000 capacity stadium can easily be raised to 30,000?
@Markito, stop wasting you time wai, because there are so many fool's in Ghana. Instead of reading the whole article, they just read the headline, assume and write their stupid. Don't waste your precious time correcting stupi ...

What sort of analysis is this? 3000 and 11000 which one is the biggest?
I can't understand this. Come clear my writer.
play outside loot and share.
the minister just playing with the gfa and Ghanaian population who voted them into power.
this is a disgrace to a nation in the times of akuffo addo.
The nation is sick, Ghana is Sick
Ghanaians 30k not 3k.
See mumugerians too follow talk. In as much as there is an issue with stadium maintenance problems in Ghana, Nigeria can not compare it useless state to Ghana, so clear off. Zoo!!
Check the facilities Nigeria has. I don't know where we got that mindset that we're better than Nigerians. They're the biggest economy in Africa, are winning laurels in football, women's football, Olympics medals, winning in ...

Nigeria is the poorest country in Africa. Their economy divided by their huge population makes their economy one of the weakness in the world. Togo is even better than Nigeria!
Thank you for the response to a brainwashed Ghanaian.
Nigeria is even worst, sometimes you nigerians should hide yourself and safe yourself from shame and insults. What concerns nigeria in this matter?, is it when Ghana has an issue then you want to chance on it trying to convin ...

Why authorities could not put this into account when they were planing the construction of the stadium
A very poor planning because this is a very simple thing to add up
All I can say is that there are high schools, not to say about colleges in the US, with better facilities than you have in Ghana. The government lacks vision, by not being able to build stadiums that meet or exceed CAF spec ...

UG Stadium which was started in 2004 and completed in 2024 has 10k capacity not 11k.
The articles states 30k for category 3 matches and some people see 3k.
Ei i hard oo
To be fair I think the report erroneously mentioned 3000 and later corrected it to 30,000
God bless my homeland Ghana
The 30000 fans capacity requirement is senseless in this day and age. The match will be shown live so I don't get it.
meanwhile over 30 million $ was spent and another $15 million to feed athletes for 18 days corrupt government. prove is required
This is a liar the stadium blackstars played with niger doesn't take 30k spectators but was able to host that. Yes the VIP ,VVIP and media center very key
