A Deputy Attorney General is claiming the Federation of International Football Association (FIFA) does not recognize the current football association.
Godfred Dame insists the football governing body is so unhappy with the current state of the FA that the three-man delegation sent to Ghana to help fix Ghana football did not even bother to have the embattled FA members take part in their meeting with government.
He was responding to comments made by Randy Abbey on Joy FM’s Newsfile programme that government erred in its attempt to dissolve the FA.
While commending the government for the initial steps it took to reorganize Ghana football after the Number 12 debacle, the former GFA spokesperson Randy Abbey said the final decision by the government to dissolve the FA is a wrong step taken.
“I am against the liquidation of the GFA,” Randy Abbey said and “I support the GFA’s response” which is to resist an attempt by the government to dissolve the FA.
He argued the GFA as a collective entity cannot be blamed for corruption but there are individuals within the FA who are corrupt and who must be dealt with.
Liquidating an entire entity because of corruption is not the way to go, he added.
But the Deputy Attorney General said the former GFA spokesperson’s comments are “unfounded and untenable.”
