The Minister of Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams, says he raised concerns over the Ghana Football Association's decision to stick with Otto Addo as head coach of the Black Stars.
Addo had come under scrutiny after a poor run last year following the GFA's choice to re-appoint him as the gaffer of the side a year ago.
The former Borussia Dortmund man oversaw just two victories across all competitions coming in the 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers against Male and Central African Republic.
While many called for the dismissal of Addo, the GFA opted to stick with him a decision Adams wasn't too satisfied with despite the association's explanation.
"I met the GFA, and they explained their decision to keep Otto. Am I fully satisfied? Time will tell. But I raised my concerns, and those concerns, I registered them [at the meeting with GFA]." he told TV3.
"However, given the crucial games ahead, making a coaching change now might not be the best move."
Addo will be looking to convince the Minister when the Black Stars resume their World Cup qualifying campaign on Friday, March 21.
