The Ghana Football Association (GFA) is allegedly being exploited for personal gain, according to Samuel Nartey George, the member of parliament for Ningo-Prampram.
In an interview with Joy Prime, George asserted that the GFA had already chosen Chris Hughton to lead the Black Stars national team and that they were searching for someone they could control and utilize for their own ends.
“That [coaching] job they have given it to Chris Hughton already so why are we wasting our time?” he said on Joy Prime
“They have given it to him because they want someone they can manipulate, someone they can use to do their business, someone they can tell him to bring his team selection [with changes being made with regards to agency callups] regardless of how long the person has played or not played.
“People are using GFA to make money, they are using it to feed their family.”
As the team gets ready for next AFCON qualifiers, the Sports Minister, Mustapha Ussif, indicated earlier this month that the GFA would submit a final report on the selection of the next head coach.
