Evelyn Nsiah Asare, CEO of Hasaacas Ladies and Board Member of Asante Kotoko, has endorsed the policy of equal winning bonuses for both male and female players on the various national teams.
Madam Nsiah Asare wants the Ghana Football Association to emulate the policy recently announced by SAFA President, Danny Jordan.
The SAFA president announced recently that South Africa’s men’s and women’s national football teams will receive equal pay and bonuses in the wake of unprecedented success achieved by the women’s team at the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations.
Madam Nsiah Asare insists the GFA should outlaw pay discrimination and embark on a programme to bridge the gender pay gap.
Speaking on Atinka FM’s Total Sports she said, “Even women deserve to be paid more than their male counterparts. Black Queens were the first senior national team to qualify for the World Cup. SAFA President Danny Jordan confirmed that it’s time South Africa Bayana Bayana got the same bonuses as the Bafana Bafana . They all play for 90 minutes,”, she ended.
In September 2020, the Sierra Leonean government and the Sierra Leone Football Association (SLFA) also announced that both the men’s and women’s teams will receive equal pay to motivate more women to get into the game in the West African country.
