GPL: Football fans to return to match venues as government lifts ban
Ghanaian football fans will be allowed to return to the various stadia in the ongoing football season, the government has announced.
Football fans have been barred from attending match venues since March last year due to COVID-19 restrictions.
The various venues will only admit 25 percent of fans with strict adherence to the COVID-19 protocols, according statement from Ghana’s Sports Ministry.
Football activities were supposed to resume together with fans’ attendance at the various stadia in October last year, but the decision was reverted due to growing number of Covid-19 cases.
The 2020/21 Ghana Premier League which is currently ongoing has been played under closed doors with some clubs flouting the rules to allow fans into the stadia.
