Ghana’s parliament has passed the Sports Bill into law.
This is to help establish the National Sports Commission to provide for the development, promotion, and management of amateur and professional sports.
The law will also enable the country run its sports in conformity with international practices.
The passing of the Sports Bill replaces the SMC Decree 54 of 1976 regarding the various aspects of sports management, promotion, and development in Ghana.
President John Mahama has to assent to the law for it to come into force.
