Minister for Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams, has been widely commended for his outstanding leadership in coordinating the 2025 President’s Cup football event.
Mr. Adams, who also serves as the Member of Parliament for Buem, chaired the Planning Committee for the event.
Following the successful match held on Sunday, July 6, 2025, many have hailed the achievement as a significant step toward advancing Ghanaian football and leveraging sports to promote national unity.
The 2025 President’s Cup featured Ghana Premier League powerhouses Kumasi Asante Kotoko and Accra Hearts of Oak at the Accra Sports Stadium.
The President’s Cup, an annual fixture held in honour of the sitting President of Ghana, has become a symbol of tradition and prestige.
But for these two clubs and their supporters, it is far more than a ceremonial match — it is another opportunity to claim bragging rights in Ghana’s most storied football rivalry.
Hearts of Oak took the lead in Sunday’s match, but Kotoko staged a comeback in the second half with two quick goals to seal the victory.
Mr. Adams’ commitment played a crucial role in elevating the event’s profile, drawing widespread excitement from football fans and dignitaries alike.
