Addressing Congress on Thursday August 20, 2026, at the Ghanaman Soccer Centre of Excellence in Prampram, the President said the initiative had already delivered substantial transportation support to clubs and football administration across the country.

“Over the past few years, the GFA has successfully implemented a comprehensive Bus Strategy, which has significantly enhanced transportation support across the game,” President Simeon-Okraku said.

Through the FIFA Forward Programme, the Football Association presented five vehicles to the Greater Accra and Northern Regional Football Associations, as well as key operational departments of the GFA.
The intervention is aimed at improving mobility and administrative efficiency while supporting football development and operations at the regional and national levels.

The vehicles are being presented in recognition of clubs that demonstrated excellence and outstanding performances during the 2024/25 season.
