Ghana after writing about them they always mention that they they Timber Lads which is positive so Timber is mentioned as part of their team so we will call on all the uh Timber firms and then people in our sector to be proud of this team and and support them not only by attending their football matches especially when they are playing the African Cup in arra but also supporting them financially

first round we are so proud of you following the Trophy presentation the forestry commission showed their support with an undisclosed cash donation to Aid FC suex as they prepare for the second preliminary round of the CF Champions League let me say this um the cap has G me some bragging rights so now when I meet my colleag paron Chiefs they call me the champion and I love that so I say thank you to Mr Cent and his team and uh what do I say again um some Texs um they're doing well and I hope they go they go far are you here this morning to present to us Y and I think it's in the right direction cuz uh what's unique about Ghana is that everybody is born to a family everybody I mean if you go to Nigeria is different if you go to Europe is different if you go to us it's different but Ghana everybody is born to a why do I say that CU sames is born to the FC family talking about forest and that's what they do so it's no wonder that they coming back here to show to their parents what they've achieved so far and we are grateful for that uh with that said we know that uh anytime your kid you know they do something great you give a part on the back and that's what FC we going to do we don't give the in the back and uh I have this envelope and custom demands that I don't mention what's in the envelope I would have love to I would love to do it but C demands as a Mone you can talk about money in public so it's money and it's en and it's fiscal cash so you can imagine how much is in it I never knew you have FC I know forestry commission but I didn't know you are known as FC so we have FC and we are also FC Sam 1996 we thank you very much this morning for this great guesture and we promise that we come back not only with the the the champions of Champions Cup but to to to to to take out the morans and get into the group stage sir and then by God willing once we get into the group stage you will see another cup given the challenges of securing fans for Continental competition FC suex will seize this financial boost definitely uh you know to play in Africa is very very expensive and that is why we've appealed to the whole nation corporate bodies institutions to help us so definitely it is very going to help the boys to move forward uh and Achieve much more success during the African campaign want to tell us how much I can't disclose it because I have not even opened the envelope last question how confident are you you ahead of the Raj Clash we are very confident but like I told you we have two important matches ahead we are focused we are doing our normal training uh we are going to take it game by game it's also another football game and we are not moved by names if it's only names we wouldn't be where we are nobody gave us a chance when we went to Dua but we able to secure Victory and secure Victory here as well and I can promise ghanians that um they are going to see good football from us up next for FC stics is the champion of champions Clash against FA Cup winners in souan on Saturday away from that ghanan footballers on the domestic scene will not be allowed to play football if they don't sign Integrity declaration forms before the start of the 20242 season now the decision by the football Governor body aims to tackle betting issues and enhance is the Integrity of the sport the Ghana premier league is set to kick off on September 6th followed by the division one and women's football leagues here is the fa executive council member Dr Randy ABI the issue of uh betting is also a big issue already this is something that is even led to uh punitive um action against two of our clubs uh we all know what happened and it appears that we need to do a lot more now in assessing uh the things that uh we need to do we realize that when it comes to the issue of uh signing up to Integrity the anti betting and all those things we have only focused on the referees and match Commissioners and so we' realized that look uh we need to in fact extend it to everybody so all players so if you're a player and you want to play in all our competitions if you are an official so defined by the GFA statutes if you are technical team member so defined by the GFA statutes you all must sign up you cannot engage in any form of betting and even if you have any knowledge if you are not engaged in it yourself you have knowledge you ought to inform the Integrity Office of the GFA about it and so that is something that everybody who intends to continue within our football ecosystem whether as a player as a technical team member as a management team official like I said the the the officiating officials are already in it you must sign up without that you will not be able to participate and they are clear sanctions clear sanctions some of them in uh I mean one of them is um um a ban completely from all football related activities and all that and so um as was announced the executive Council has taken the first step by signing up and would expect that all the regional Football Association chairs all those who work at the regional Football Association all those who work at the GF head office Technical Center uh here at PR pram every player every technical team member every management team member so defined by F statute you ought to sign by it and you suffer the sanctions if you fall foul the Chief Executive Officer of haaka ladies Evelyn inia assari is urging the GH Football Association to deliver the promised bares to Women's Premier League clubs before the new season begins now GFA president K CRI who had announced plans to provide buses for leak clubs confirmed that the buses have arrived now Evelyn now emphasizes the need for early distribution to ease Transportation burdens on the club the launch it's been nice and I think there were some challenges that um he touched on which interest me most the first one is the basses that um she's going to give to women football in fact but um when he mentioned that last year I I took it as a prayer point that the president will deliver that for us and then this morning he said the buses are there it is my prayer that we will get the buses before the start of the league and then secondly when you look at um development of women's football we start from the scratch so I believe this time president going down to division one division 2 division 3 to start from there it is a very good thing that we should all support because when you you win a league from the division one and you are being given 10,000 to prepare for the middle League I believe it's it's it's not going to solve all the problem for you but it's it's will have solve the problem a halfway then there's another thing that he Ted in fact when this facility was put together I was one of the first people who came here with under 14 it was a very nice facility and somewhere along the line you you realize that it was deteriorating but today we can say that it's it's nice so I believe these are some of the few things that I picked now the launch of the Golden Hands about took place earlier today inra the WBO Africa championship bout between Ghana Daniel gsh and gizan vanui of Benin set to take place on September 14th uh this year now my colleague Bay was there and came together with this report members of the boxing Community were in attendance at the three housee restaurant in Acra for the launch of the 20124 WBU Africa Championship the event which is the first of its kind in Ghana is an opportunity to revive the sport two promotions have come together to organize what we term as the Golden Hands is Debut the Golden Hands which promises to be a very competitive night of boxing right here at the Treehouse Restaurant the statement I'm about to make is quite controversial I'll make it anyway you would agree with me that though other parts of the country other regions within the country have contributed to towards the development of boxing I can confidently say has contributed the most if not more than 80% this one it's arguable but there's so much Raw Talent with within the gashi area and as sons of the soil papani and and myself as sons of the soil we believe that it is important for us to develop or help develop the sport within the area most of the boxing gyms that you find in Greater arra are located within that small gashi area president of WBU Africa Sam captan advised boxers to take advantage of this opportunity pray that day that all of us should be prompt here prompt when we thought he repeated it three times we should be prompt and this our main problem this our main problem we need to control that not even only in boxing even with our girlfriends we give them appointment they will tell I'll come 7:00 you need to wait for them about 10:00 and it behoves me that when they promote boxing it Tak us to the morning which is never done I don't agree with that I don't agree with that and we need to stop all these things and so many bouts on one night and one thing I complain with the due respect to our president here GBA president I'm not happy about this m business it doesn't orer well for the boxes their future it doesn't orer well and if you I don't want to talk about certain things press men come to me in the office I don't want to talk about it for somebody to think that I try to undermine someone no and you all know the way I do my things I call esade esade Daniel Josh is confident of beating his Bena opening on September 14 I wish you to come around to witness boxing everybody is fighting boxing but I want you all to come around to come and see what is called good boxing for I want to see a very big I want to give a very big respect to my opponent very very experienced boxer I not taking as a joke it's a business time so when I get in the ring I do what I can do and I get I don't have much to say everything Only God Knows Best on the if I wish to come around to support me you know I'm for GH and for I I want his manager to send this message to is she ready for me I'm the king so when I get I show my people that I'm the king thank you very much now we're just a few
