Instead of Government Transporting Football Fans

The Ghanaian government transported 1,000 fans to cheer the Black Stars at the group stage of the FIFA World Cup. Even though the team qualified for the second round, the fans are not allowed to stay on because the budget did not include the second round of the tournament. Perhaps the government of Ghana did not even believe that its team would qualify for the second round! That said, government should not be paying for fans to attend would cup. Government should instead engineer a strong economy so that those who want to attend the tournament would make their own money to sponsor themselves. That way, those who attend the event would stay they for as long as their budget allows them rather than being in the air flying home while their team is playing.
