A new date for the 2023 African Games (AG) will soon be announced following the resolution of the crises between the African Union (AU), the Association of National Olympic Committees of Africa (ANOCA) and the Association of African Sports Confederations (AASC), BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The African Games to be hosted in Ghana was originally scheduled for August, but disagreements between the three stakeholders affected the Local Organizing Committee (LOC) preparations for the event.

The disagreement was amicably resolved on Sunday at the AU Headquarters in Addis Ababa following a meeting facilitated by Ghana's President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, who 

was represented by the Minister of Youth and Sports, Mustapha Ussif, and the Chairperson of the AU, Moussa Mahamat.

At the end of the meeting, stakeholders signed a negotiated agreement for the resumption of preparations for the African Games.
