Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
The Elections Committee of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) has disqualified George Afriyie from the upcoming GFA presidential elections.
Afriyie, a former vice president of the Ghana FA, was hoping to unseat incumbent GFA president Kurt Okraku after losing out four years ago.
However, a statement from the Elections Committee said the football administrator failed to provide the required number of GFA members to endorse his candidature.
The Committee, however, added that Afriyie had the right to appeal the decision to disqualify him within the next three working days.
Should Afriyie’s appeal fail, incumbent GFA president Okraku will be contesting unopposed in his re-election bid.
