Sports Minister asssures ex-Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah will be paid

Sports Minister Isaac Asiamah has revealed government is determined to settle the salary arrears of ex-Ghana coach Kwesi Appiah.

Appiah is owed US$ 185,000 which is made up of two months salaries and bonuses

The ex-international left his post as Black Stars coach after the expiration of his contract in December 2019.

After five months, Appiah has threatened to drag the Ghana FA to FIFA if he is not paid.

''It will be wrong to state that we don't want to pay him because we have supported him right from the start of his contract,'' Asiamah said a press conference.

''We paid all his two-year salaries and bonuses before the extension of his contract and that is how come we owe him.

''I can assure you that we will pay him his due for all the good work he had done for our dear nation.''
