Ghana Football Association (GFA) President Kurt Okraku has announced his intention to seek re-election in the upcoming GFA Elections, scheduled for October.
Okraku made the declaration during the 29th GFA Ordinary Congress, where he received a positive response from the audience, including a standing ovation and chants of “Long Live Kurt.”
Okraku has been leading the GFA since 2019 when he was elected as president after the dissolution of football in the aftermath of an investigative documentary by journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas. The documentary resulted in the removal of Kwesi Nyantakyi from the position of GFA President.
During his speech at the Congress, Okraku emphasised his commitment to continuing his leadership journey in Ghana football. He highlighted his achievements over the past three and a half years, including Ghana’s victory in the U-20 Africa Cup of Nations in 2021 and the national team’s qualification for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, defeating Nigeria in the final qualifying round.
