Baba Yara Stadium should be completely demolished & rebuilt from scratch – OB (Richard Obeng)
Former beIN Sports crew member, OB Richard Obeng, has called for the demolition of the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi and the construction of a new, modern facility to replace it.
Speaking on Kessben Sports, Richard Obeng argued that continuously renovating the existing stadium is not a sustainable solution, considering the huge sums of money that have reportedly been spent on maintaining and upgrading the facility over the years.
According to him, approximately $20 million has been spent on renovations at the Baba Yara Stadium over the past 20 years alone, yet concerns about the facility’s condition and suitability for modern football continue to emerge.
He believes the government should consider investing in a completely new stadium built from scratch, rather than continuing to spend significant amounts on repeated renovations.
Richard Obeng’s comments have reignited discussions about the future of Ghana’s largest sports stadium and the need for modern sporting infrastructure to meet international standards.
