Reports of government interference in the sport has commanded a lot inches in the local press and there have been reactions and counter reactions from the two-parties.
Governement wants a reconstitution of the management committees of the various national teams and is also putting pressure on the FA to enforce the five-year ban imposed on Asante Kotoko's CEO for his role in February's stadium disaster.

Koufie who doubles as a Caf technical instructor is a worried man.
"It is a worrying situation that at this time this issue about governmental interference is coming up. If this goes on, we will be opened to a ban from Fifa because Fifa frowns on that," Koufie told Ghanasoccernet.com
"So what we can only do is to settle the matter even before Fifa comes in."
