The Black Stars of Ghana failed to get out of the group stages at the ongoing African Cup of Nations in Cote D’Ivoire after a disappointing 2-2 draw with Mozambique on Monday.
This scoreline quashed the dreams of Ghana in ending its decades-long drought of not winning the AFCON and a consecutive exit from the group in the continent’s premier competition.
Consequently, the Ghana Football Association (GFA) announced the sacking of Chris Hughton as coach of the team and dissolved the entire technical team.
However, Ghanaians on social media, especially on X, are not satisfied with just the firing of the coach and are calling for the resignation of GFA President, Kurt Okraku.
They argue that the administration of Mr. Okraku has been shambolic and the performances of the national teams in recent years have been disastrous.
GFA president and the executives, when are you resigning ?

You sack Chris Houghton a coach which you didn't allow to work on his own. My question is, what is Kurt Okraku doing at post having failed as a GFA president. pic.twitter.com/hLAwHDjgJU

Kurt Okraku and Dede Ayew have been the the only constant in all our embarrassing showing in previous tourneys
Sacking Chris Hughton is a quick fix. The bigger fix is getting Kurt Okraku out too.#KurtOkrakuOut #KurtMustGo
