The league had to take a hiatus since we were away at the World Cup. "Due to how the season is packed, there was not a free day, so we had to turn our attention to the league fixtures when looking for a date.
He stated on Happy FM that the winner of the match would receive GHC 50,000 and the runner-up would receive GHC 30,000.
The former chief executive officer of Ashantigold also went over the rules of the game.
