"Let me urge the Ghana Football Association to put a lot more focus on the other national teams...; in other to adequately prepare them for their international competitions as well," he said.

"On the development of sports infrastructure, Mr. Speaker,  I am happy to inform you that work is progressing speedily on the Cape Coast stadium and is expected to be completed this year (2015)."

He further mentioned that government will partner with corporate institutions to support the programs of the various sporting associations this year.
