Bibiani Hwenampori Chief has begun construction of a multi-purpose sports complex for his community

A ceremony has been performed to mark the start of construction works on a multi-purpose sports complex and youth resource centre at Bibiani Hwenampori, a suburb of Bibiani in the Bibiani Anhwiaso Bekwai Municipality of the Western North Region.

According to Nana Ebiri Kwaku II, the Bibiani Hwenampori Chief, upon completion, it would have a standard football pitch, tartan tracks, courts for table tennis, basketball, handball and volleyball, taekwondo and gymnastic hall. There would also be an information and communication technology (ICT) centre, counselling and entrepreneurship centres, restaurant and sanitation facilities.

It would without doubt help to promote the lesser known sports and provide career guidance to the youth. The counselling centre would assist the young people to make the right decisions about their future, while the entrepreneurship centre would provide them with skilled training.

The traditional ruler expressed optimism that the facility would give impetus to sports development in Bibiani.

"As you already know in the Western North Region we have only Bibiani Gold star as a premier club and when the Ghana Premier league starts, the away team can even come and use this place as their training ground and when they come, people will come and see, and others too will come to sell water and other food, so it will reduce unemployment," he added.

He added that during the 6th March celebration one of the Bibiani Christmas celebrations, this place can be used for activities. He said the project is funded by him and his elders and therefore used the opportunity to appeal to other individuals for support.
