Newly re-elected President of the Ghana Football Association, Kurt S.E Okraku has expressed his warm appreciation to the football gurus in Ghana for a second term as their leader.
The president made this comment at the Global Dream Hotel in Tamale on October 5, 2023 after securing majority leader of the votes with 117 Yes vote out of 120 delegates present.
Kurt Okraku went unopposed in the GFA Presidential Election after his competitor, George Afriyie was disqualified by both the Election Committee and the Appeals Committee following a review process.
‘’With a gracious heart, I want to thank you for travelling far and near to be part of this process. We had 120 delegates attending this morning’s function. Ayekoo’’ he said.
‘’In 2019 our football family gave us the opportunity to serve after our dear country’s football went through very difficult and challenging times’’.
‘’After Normalization the entire World was confronted with COVID-19 and again our football was badly affected but it took a strong effort from this football family to save our game’’.
‘’During the last Congress in Kumasi, I did say that our football went through good times and some bad times. But throughout this period we stayed together, in these good times we chalked some success on and off the pitch. In these same bad times we lost some battles on the field but we believed in the vision''.
‘’This is the time to work together no matter our differences just for the sake of Ghana football’’ he added.
President Okraku and the newly Executive Members will hold their positions for the next four-years to bring their visionary projects into reality.
