Former Black Princesses midfielder Kate Adu Agyemang has renewed calls for the settlement of long-overdue bonuses owed to members of Ghana’s 2015 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup qualifying squad.
Adu Agyemang reminded authorities that more than a decade after helping Ghana qualify for the 2016 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in Papua New Guinea, each player is still owed $8,000.
“I am making this video to petition, to remind the Ghana Football Association, the President of the Ghana Football Association, and the Minister of Sports, that if they have forgotten that they still owe the 2015 women’s qualifying team for the World Cup, then this is a reminder petitioning them to do what is right by us,” she said.
The squad earned a spot at the tournament but finished bottom of their group, earning two points from a loss to New Zealand and draws against France and the United States. Adu Agyemang played in all three matches.
“It has been over 12 years now since they owed us $8,000. $8,000 may not be a lot of money to them or to many people, but to those of us who sacrificed our time and effort, it is very essential,” she emphasized.
Several squad members, including Ernestina Abambilla, Sandra Owusu Ansah, and Princella Adubea, have since advanced to the senior national team, the Black Queens. Adu Agyemang is calling on her former teammates to join her demand, insisting: “12 years is enough, and we can’t let this keep going on.”
