Seven submissions received for Ghana FA presidential race to succeed Nyantakyi

Six men and one woman have filed nominations to become the next president of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Goal understands.

The top seat has been vacant since the bribery and match-fixing scandal caused the overhaul of the previous administration led by Kwesi Nyantakyi in June 2018.

The stipulated deadline for submission of nominations forms was last Friday.

George Afriyie - a vice president of the GFA during the Nyantakyi era - former GFA Executive Committee member Wilfred Kwaku Osei, Dreams FC executive chairman Kurt Okraku and Fred Pappoe - also once a vice president of the GFA - are among the leading candidates.
