The Ghana Football Association (GFA) and the Confederation of African Football (CAF) are set to train security officers as part of safety measures to be implemented at the various stadiums.

The Ghana FA is putting in place enhanced measures in the wake of the unfortunate incident which happened in Nsoatre two weeks ago when a fan was stabbed to death during the Ghana Premier League matchday 19 fixture between Nsoatreman and Asante Kotoko.

The GFA, through its Safety and Security Committee, investigated the matter as they sought to avoid a repetition of a similar incident going forward.

Following the committee's report, the association has revealed some enhanced measures with the training of Regional Sports Security Officers (RSSOs).

"Each Club shall appoint a Club Safety and Security Officer (CSSO) to be responsible for their club’s safety and security matters on matchdays. Clubs who haven’t yet appointed the above Role and submitted the individual for training shall not be allowed to honour their matches in their home venues," the FA said in a statement released on Wednesday, February 11.

"The Ghana Police Service shall appoint in each Region of Ghana, a Regional Sports Security Officer (RSSO). There shall be an appointed Matchday Security Coordinator (MSC) who shall be the Police Commander in charge of the safety and security of the match.

"The GFA, in collaboration with CAF Safety and Security, will organize training for the Regional Sports Security Officers (RSSOs), Matchday Security Coordinators (MSCs) and Club Safety and Security Officer (CSSO) under the CAF Safe Stadium Initiative."

According to the GFA, the enhanced measures will not only be limited to the Ghana Premier League but all levels.
