The countdown to the general election of the Ghana Football Association is on as all parties will move to the northern part of Ghana on 27th September,2023.
However many eyebrows have been raised as to why the electoral commission of the federation has chosen Tamale as the venue for the election some do not see it as the best issue, but the general secretary of the Ghana Football Association Mr Prosper Harrison Addo has revealed the reason why the federation has decided to choose Tamale as the main grounds for this year’s election.
According to Mr Addo, it’s a deliberate attempt from the FA to take football everywhere as a clear way to change the narrative in the coming days. Starting from the just ended Congress in Kumasi, they believe doing that will increase the bond in our football ecosystem he told Accra-based station Peace FM.
“The decision to take the elections to Tamale it is in our plans that Ghana Football Association is there for our football family in all the football regions in Ghana,” he said.
“So we have planned to take football everywhere in the past you will see that every final is played in Accra. You will see a conscious effort that we are moving the finals to every part of the country.
“The same thing the congress too we are moving it there is nothing in the football rules that says congress should be held in Accra never.
“Unlike the FA Cup per the rules first it was played in Accra but we have removed that today the FA Cup can go to Tamale, Kumasi, Cape Coast, Sekondi Takoradi. So the same way the ExCo congress decides the only rule is that ExCo decides the venue, date, and time,” he ended.
