Ghana Football Association, Normalization Committee Chairman, Dr Kofi Amoah, has revealed that the
\nnext football league in the country will start in August.
\nGhana premier league is set to bounce back after the 2018\/2019 season ended abruptly after officials
\nwere caught in bribery and corruption issues in the documentary of investigative journalist Anas
\nAremeyaw Anas’s piece on football.
\nThe head of the four-member interim body, says FIFA has approved their work so far and it’s left with the
\nExecutive Committee of the GFA to give approval, before the association goes for elections to elect new
\nleaders for the body.
\nThe mandate of the Normalization Committee was extended for another six months by FIFA in March
\n2019, to run the affairs of Ghana football till September but according to the chairman, it’s time to hand
\nover the running of the game to the football people.
\nSpeaking to the media after handing the NC Special Cup to winners Kumasi Asante Kotoko he said, “Well,
\nthe next league will start in August and therefore the GFA will communicate to them (the clubs),…they already have
\nan idea but they also know that we are going through the Normalization process of changing the
\nstatutes of the Ghana Football Association”.
\n“FIFA have pretty much approved what we have done and now we have to place it before Congress-
\nthe Ghana Football Association Congress will have to approve it and when they approve it then we go
\nfor elections- from the district to the regional to the national, then we will select the board which is the
\nformer Exco of the GFA, and the Chairman who is the President and then they can start”, he added<\/p>\n
