Speaking to Fox FM, Abdul Salam Yakubu said “Kurt does not deserve another term. Just look at how our game has deteriorated over the years. Our national teams are not doing well in Africa, our clubs are not any better".
“Do you know how many clubs that are suffering under this Kurt administration? Techiman City, Unity FC, Phar Rangers, Tema Youth, Hasaacas. I mean I can mention about twenty of them. Is this how to lead the GFA?”, he quizzed.
Meanwhile, the outspoken Abdul Salam believes that George Afriyie is the right person for the position.
“I am still part of the George Afriyie camp because I believe his leadership qualities would have helped our football to grow to a greater level than what we are currently seeing. We need someone who will unite the football family, someone who will develop our game, and that is George Afriyie. He will win the elections.”
The Congress agenda is set to encompass a range of important topics, including the election of the GFA President, the election of Executive Council Members, and the official swearing-in ceremony.
