2024 Olympic Games: We must collapse our sports - Veronica Commey

Ghana won no medal at the Olympics Ghana won no medal at the Olympics

Sports journalist Veronica Commey has called for the dissolution of sports in Ghana following the country's abysmal performance in the 2024 Olympic Games.

Despite sending eight athletes to the Olympic Games held in Paris, France, Ghana managed to secure zero medals.

Veronica Commey, joining a panel discussion on Peace FM's 'Kokrokoo' morning show on the aftermath of the Olympics, expressed her displeasure with the current state of the country's sporting fraternity.

To her, it is obvious that the nation's leaders and sports authorities are disinterested in developing the country's sports.

"You cannot reap where you have not sown," she said.

She stressed, "We must collapse our sports because obviously, we are not interested in developing sports. We are not interested in the progress of the nation or helping to nurture talents."
