The Ministry of Youth and Sports in collaboration with the Alhaji Aliu Mahama Foundation and the Ghana Football Association (GFA) will organize a memorial football match between a Southern Select Side and a Northern Select Side to mark the 5th Anniversary of the demise of the late Vice President Alhaji Aliu Mahama.

The Game which is to be played on Sunday, 12th December, 2017 would precede the grand naming of the Tamale Sports Stadium by the late Vice President.

Launching the event on Monday, Deputy Minister of Youth and Sports, Hon. Pius Enam Hadzide disclosed that H.E Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo-Addo will perform the official ceremonial kick before renaming the 20,000 capacity stadium.

Hon. Hadzide said the late Vice President deserved the honour following his keen interest and support for football. ‘’He was the brain behind the Real Tamale United (RTU) and rose to become the Chairman at a point. He played a massive role in improving the game up north as well as across the country’’.
