FIFA cannot intimidate Ghana: Moses Foh Amoaning

Published on: 15 August 2018

FIFA cannot intimidate Ghana in our quest to clean the football system, says football commentator and lawyer Moses Foh Amoaning.

FIFA has given Ghana government a deadline of August 27 to withdraw a court case against the Ghana Football Association or be banned from global football.

But Foh Amoaning says FIFA is being unfair with the government.

''Ghanaians should not worry about FIFA's order because the government has not done anything wrong,'' he told Peace FM's Nana Yaw Kesse.

''What the Ghana government has done is a good step in the right direction which doesn’t flout the FIFA rules.

''I think FIFA is intimidating Africans and it is high time Africans woke up from their slumber.

''If our attempt to fight corruption will warrant punishment, then why should FIFA say they have zero tolerant for corruption?.

''I think FIFA should have banned America and Switzerland if they think Ghana government is wrong to seek justice for our football.

''FIFA should understand that they cannot be superior to Ghana's constitution and for that matter, whatever they do should commensurate with our highest law of the land.

''I dare them to go ahead and ban Ghana and they will see what will happen to them.

''Ghanaians will contest them at Court of Arbitration for sports [CAS] and if it doesn’t auger well with us, we will proceed to the International Court of Criminal Justice.''
