Clubs that stop accredited media personnel from broadcasting games at their home venues are in violation of the GFA league’s regulations.
Section 42(6) of the Association’s Premier League Regulations, 2029, states that:
It is an offence to prevent or seek to prevent authorised by the GFA from filming a match.
If found guilty the club would have to pay a fine not less than GH₵10,000 per Section 42(7) of the GFA Premier League Regulation, 2019.
The statement added that Medeama SC have until Wednesday, January 8, 2025, to respond to the charges.
Meanwhile, the Tarkwa-based have not said anything about the charges but an official statement is expected from the club regarding the incident soon.
