The Majority Leader in Parliament, Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, has known as for sports activities making a bet to be regulated in order to store Ghana football.
According to him, making a bet is destroying the activity and matters would instead get worse, except a deliberate try is made to address the menace.
Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu, who doubles the Member of Parliament for Suame Constituency, stated some thing ought to be accomplished to keep soccer in the country.
“Indeed betting is something which is really destroying our game. Football is and must be won on the pitch, but when people try to manipulate the results of the game even before it is played, then that is serious which needs an immediate solution,” he stated on Akoma FM.
“I have been to so many countries across Africa and I don’t see these things happening there… If care is not taken, the game will be destroyed completely in the future.”
“I believe if we will allow (betting) in our games, then there should be strict laws or measures that will help us to regulate it properly so we don’t abuse or destroy the game entirely.”
