‘It’s a systemic problem’ – All Black PRO dismisses Kurt’s resignation calls
Calls for the GFA leadership to step down have intensified among fans and key stakeholders following Ghana’s shocking home defeat to The Gambia.
Swedru All Blacks Communications Director Nathaniel Obeng has dismissed calls for the resignation of Ghana Football Association (GFA) President Kurt Okraku, stating that such a move will not resolve the current crisis surrounding the national team. The GFA has been under intense pressure following Ghana's disappointing 2-0 home defeat to The Gambia in the 2027 AFCON qualifiers, which followed an opening defeat to Côte d'Ivoire.
Obeng emphasized that addressing the issue by targeting a specific individual is unlikely to yield the desired results, as this approach has been attempted before and proved futile. He argued that the problem lies in the system itself rather than with Kurt Okraku personally. Currently, Ghana finds themselves at the bottom of Group C without any points, while Côte d'Ivoire and The Gambia top the table with six points each.
The coaching position remains vacant after Carlos Queiroz resigned amid the team's poor performance. The Black Stars are scheduled to face Somalia in an important match in Accra in November.
