With just a day to the start of the tournament in Equatorial Guinea, Ghana TV is set to confirm they have secured the rights.

If Ghana Television fails to raise the amount, it would mean Ghanaians can only watch the AFCON on pay TV.

The Black Stars are in action on Monday against Senegal at the Mongomo Stadium.
