The latest outbursts from Ghana Football Association President
Kwesi Nyantekyie suggests that division is imminent if key
members of the FA continue to butt heads.
Nyantekyie addressed the Congress, stressing the issue of
tension is a "self-created problem for individuals and
insisted that if you lose an election, it doesn't mean you
should kick against everything the incumbent does."
The president's threat fuelled rumours of a split, but he
claims that "if somebody has antagonism deep rooted in
him, then it is his own problem."
He also warned that the GFA will be forced to seek legal redress
after the state-owned Graphic Sports claimed in an editorial
that Congress was a rubber stamp that will endorse whatever
the president comes up with.
Nyantekyie added: "Newspapers have a say in the development
of football, but to describe this congress as a rubber stamp
is not fair.
"It is an issue we have to raise with the executive committee
and the National Media Commission.
"I do not wish that this association engages in any legal
wrangle with a media house, but if we are stretched to unbearable
limit, we may not have an option but to do that," he
concluded.
