Aduana FC Owner, Osagyefo Oseadeeyo Agyeman Badu II, believes that the President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Kurt Okraku, is capable of transforming Ghana football.
The Dormahene made these remarks when Okraku paid a courtesy call on him at his palace in Dormaa Ahenkro on Saturday, August 10.
Kurt Okraku has been in office since 2019, following the ‘Number 12’ expose, which put Ghanaian football on hold for months and particularly affected local leagues.
Osagyefo Oseadeeyo Agyeman Badu II praised the GFA President for implementing changes in the football system but added that there is still room for improvement.
"I have been monitoring the progress of work at the GFA and I must say you are doing very well. With the support of your Executive Council and staff, you will take Ghana football to places," he said.
"No one can say there has been no change since you came to power. We can all see the immense changes but just like there is always room for improvement, you will improve and thrive."
"I will urge you to keep the focus and foster unity for the forward march of football in our dear country. We are grateful for your leadership and hope you will lead us to the Promised Land."
Kurt Okraku was re-elected GFA President for a second term in October 2023 after going unopposed.
