Football clubs ‘are in love’ with Kurt Okraku – Aduana FC boss
Okraku, who has been president of the GFA since 2019, has come under increasing pressure following a slump in form for the Black Stars.
Aduana FC General Manager Takyi Arhin has spoken out in support of Ghana Football Association president Kurt Okraku. Despite calls for his resignation, Arhin insists that football clubs and administrators "are in love" with Okraku's leadership. This comes after a disappointing performance from the Ghana national team, including a 4-2 defeat to The Gambia in the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
The loss followed a 2-0 home defeat to Ivory Coast, leaving Ghana without a point from their first two matches and bottom of Group C. Arhin highlighted the financial and logistical support provided to clubs during Okraku's tenure, including a GHC1 million payment and distribution of boots, footballs, jerseys, and free fuel coupons.
However, former GFA chairman Dr Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe and former Ghana international Sam Johnson have called for Okraku to consider stepping down, warning that Ghana could miss the 2027 AFCON after failing to qualify for the 2025 edition under his leadership.
