“The state of the pitch at the moment, you cannot even play Colts football on it,” Ankrah told the press.
“The weather, which is a natural source, has not been too favourable in this part of the country over the past few weeks,” he explained.
“Kotoko officially wrote to us just over a week ago,” Ankrah added.
“They wish to use this venue, but as we can all see, we need to make sure everything is in perfect condition before that can be done.”
“We need to put our act together, join forces, and make sure it happens. The experts have given us a timeline, and we must work hard to meet or even beat that deadline.”
