The Chairperson for the Local Organizing Committee (LOC) for the Africa Women Cup of Nations (AWCON) 2018 to be hosted by Ghana, Honorable Freda Prempeh has confirmed that Ghana is ready to host the rest of Africa.

The tournament is set to be staged from 17th November to 1st December 2018.

There have been doubts that the Accra Sports Stadium might not be ready for the tournament but according to the Madam Freda Prempeh, the venue is ready for use after watching the Black Queens pip Bayaya Bayana of South Africa in a friendly encounter at the Accra Sports Stadium over the weekend.

"The Accra sports stadium is in a very good shape for the AWCON. We are prepared and ready for the tournament. Green grasses are back on the pitch to work," Hon. Freda Prempeh told Happy FM.

"Accommodation and training facilities are ready for the tournament."

Madam Prempeh, who doubles as a Member of Parliament for Tano North, was asked about the condition at the Cape Coast Sports Stadium which will host countries from Group B.

"It rained in Cape Coast last week which destroyed the Robert Mensah training pitch but we have the Odartey Lamptey's Academy which is our second option."
