Sports Ministry Appoints Kenpong As Official World Cup 2022 Agent

The Ministry of Youth and Sports (MOYS) has appointed Kenpong Travel & Tours Company as the official travel agent for the FIFA World Cup, Qatar 2022.

In a statement issued last week, the Ministry said the company will be assisting officials of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), the Ministry of Youth and Sports and supporters who wish to witness the World Cup by securing visas, airlines and match tickets, travel advice and counsel, accommodation and arrangement of internal transportation in a unique package for the tournament.

“By this release, the general public is advised to contact the company for their travelling needs as far as the 2022 World Cup in Qatar is concerned as KENPONG TRAVEL & TOURS has distinguished themselves as a leading travel and tour agency in Ghana,” the statement said.

It is not clear how exactly the selection process went – whether it was through competitive bidding or sole-sourcing.

Kenpong travel and tours is owned by business mogul Mr. Kennedy Agyepong alias Kenpong.

In the coming days, the company is expected to outdoor the various packages ahead of the tournament which runs from Monday, November 21, 2022, to December 18, 2022.

The Black Stars of Ghana have been drawn in Group H alongside Portugal, Uruguay and South Korea.

They will play their first game on November 24 against Portugal at the Stadium 974, Doha, then travel to the Education City Stadium, Al Rayyan, to play South Korea on November 28 before closing out the group stages in a grudge encounter against Uruguay on December 2 at the Al Janoub Stadium, Al Wakrah
