Minister of Youth and Sports, Mustapha Ussif, says the contractor renovating the Essipong Stadium is roofing the stadium and it is expected to be ready for use soon.
The renovation of the facility which started in 2021 with a US$3 million budget has been delayed leaving it in a deplorable state.
According to the minister, the edifice which is in a deplorable state, is getting a facelift to restore several damaged portions.
“As we speak, the contractor is roofing Essipong [Stadium]. We told you from the beginning that work was ongoing… when you are doing construction, there is no way the place will look very tidy until you finish.”
“We told you that they were blasting because a lot of the metals that were used were being damaged and the contractor as part of his scope was to make sure that they blast them all the metals and then coat them.”
“We have given him [contractor] the resources to complete the work… Essipong is back to life.”- he added.
