Kurt Okraku has filed his nomination to once again contest the presidential seat of the Ghana Football Association.
Okraku will run for re-election for the post he currently occupies when his term as president expires in October of this year.
In October 2019, he was elected as GFA President, defeating George Afriyie and four other contenders.
Okraku told reporters after filing his nomination to run for the GFA seat again on Friday, August 11, that his ambition is to continue to grow Ghana football to the highest level.
“Ghana football has suffered, Ghana football has struggled but is currently on the rise and I can assure you that, Ghana football is currently in safe hands, and I am that person," he said.
He stated he is open to ideas from other football administrators, especially those in the opposition, in order to propel Ghana football to where it should be.
“Most administrators trust in my vision and we need to work together to achieve that higher height. My hands are opened to other minds to make our football better," he added.
The GFA’s Elective Congress has been scheduled for September 27, in Tamale.
