The Ministry of Youth and Sports has paid the Black Queens outstanding per diems owed them ahead of the 2024 Olympic Games qualifier against Zambia.
The Ghana women's senior national team have been the most talked about following unpaid bonuses from their last three qualifiers.
Reports earlier on Wednesday had suggested the team were looking to boycott the third round of their Olympic qualifier against Zambia due to the unsettled bonuses as well as per diems.
The public outcry prompted swift action from the Sports Ministry, led by Mustapha Ussif, the Ghana Football Association President, Kurt Okraku and the Chairperson of the Black Queens Management Committee, Gifty Oware-Mensah, who went to visit the team in the evening.
Joy Sports gathers the per diems of the players including the owed ones have now been cleared with the unsettled bonuses all expected to be paid in the coming hours.
The first leg of the game is scheduled for Friday, February 23, with the return fixture coming off five days later.
