Nyantakyi set to be re-elected as GFA President

Audio By Carbonatix

The Ghana Football Association Congress will re-elect incumbent president Kwesi Nyantakyi to continue for another four-year term at the UDS Hall in Tamale today.

This year’s Congress had been threatened by legal action but a court ruling last Friday paved the way for all members of the Association to gather in Tamale for the process.

Nyantakyi ran unopposed after all the earlier announced contenders failed to complete the standard nomination procedure.

This is the second time in a row the lawyer will have no challenger at the polls after three candidates were disqualified from the race in 2011 for failing to meet election requirements.

According to Article 28.7 of the Ghana FA Statutes, Congress will duly return the 47-year-old as president.
