The Editor-In-Chief of the New Crusading Guide, Abdul Malik Kweku Baako has cautioned the newly formed Ghana Football Association (GFA) executives to be careful about the\u00a0choice of a vice president.<\/p>\n
Per the Association\u2019s new constitution, the GFA executives are expected\u00a0to appoint a vice president to assist newly elected GFA president Kurt Edwin Simeon-Okraku to carry out his duties.<\/p>\n
Speaking on JoyNews\u2019 current affairs\u00a0programme,\u00a0Newsfile, Saturday, Mr Baako said\u00a0the executives\u00a0have\u00a0to, \u201ctake time, do some consultations and make sure the right person is put there.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to Kweku Baako, the Association appointing someone who does not court\u00a0controversy will be detrimental to his tenure of office.<\/p>\n
\u201cSomebody who attracts controversy immediately [is a person] they\u00a0should not go for. The person may be good, maybe efficient and everything, but if he breeds controversy, he doesn\u2019t need that for starters,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Kurt Edwin Simeon-Okraku was elected GFA president after his closest rival George Afriyie conceded defeat before\u00a0the third round of voting at Friday\u2019s Elective Congress held at the College of Physicians and Surgeons in Accra.<\/p>\n
His win was endorsed with 93 votes from delegates.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
