Director General of the National Sports Authority (NSA) Prof. Peter Twumasi has said that the introduction of electronic ticketing has improved proceeds from games.
The Ghana Premier League has seen a significant drop in fans watching the games at the stadia, with many pundits and fans attributing it to the introduction of e-ticketing.
The GFA President and other stakeholders have also agreed with these people that e-ticketing is part of the problem.
However, speaking to Accra-based Asempa FM, Twumasi said that the proceeds from games have improved significantly since the introduction of e-ticketing.
He believes it has stopped revenue leakages from stadiums that are usually bringing in a lot of money.
"After the coming of the e-ticketing when you look at the statistics, the proceeds from the games have improved a lot," he said.
"When it came money is now coming from a lot of category D venues because everyone that’s now coming has already bought the ticket before coming."
