The Accra Sports Stadium is in very bad shape and a photo circulating online shows how the much-touted Nation’s Wembley is now a pale shadow of itself.
Popular Sports presenter Saddick Adams, aka Sports Obama shared the viral photo on his timeline on social media depicting how the once upon time beautiful stadium looks like after the flopped show of Nigerian superstar Wizkid which went down last weekend.
Although Wizkid himself eventually failed to show up for the event, other artists, including Gyakie, Yaw Tog and Darko Vibes all performed.
This online portal previously reported that the much-touted Wizkid Live Concert in Accra ended in smoke literally after patrons stood for hours waiting for the headliner from Nigeria to come and give them their money’s worth but he was nowhere to be found.
Some attendees and bloggers who attended the event reported that the DJ and MC for the events were left to keep the crowd going for over two hours after local stars like Yaw Tog mounted the stage to perform.
Despite the long wait, Wizkid and the other headline musicians failed to turn up at the concert. Multiple sources online say a lot of people who purchased the tickets are requesting that the musician refunds their money to them.
Fast forward, Obama highlighted the state of the stadium by writing;
“The state of the National Stadium in Accra, after the Wizkid show. No protection for the pitch they spent taxpayers money to plant few months ago. Ghana Premier League is back this weekend but games expected here have been moved to private venues. Great Leaders in charge .
