Published on: 24 June 2023

Owner and bankroller of King Faisal, Alhaji Karim Grunzah, has attacked the Ghana Football Association (GFA), describing the the FA as corrupt and demands that Kurt Okraku, who is the president to resign.

His comments come after King Faisal’s case against Tamale City before the Appeals Committee was dismissed on Friday as announced by the Football Association.

The verdict of the committee means King Faisal’s relegation to the Division One League has been confirmed.

However, Alhaji says he will be heading to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) to fight his case.

Speaking to Kumasi based LUV FM, Alhaji alleged that Kurt Okraku called him to his office when he appealed the case with the assurance of helping him.

He stressed the GFA is corrupt under its leader Kurt Okraku and so, the President must resign to purge the association.

“What has he [Kurt] done for Ghana football?" Alhaji Grusah, who a member of the the Black Stars management committee said.

“I want to tell Kurt Okraku, he should resign from the GFA, and his General Secretary too.

“He called me to his office and told me, I have no case but he wants to help me. You can call him and ask him.

“I was with him at his office together with Mohammed Jiji.

“This corrupt GFA under [Kurt Okraku]? Running family association, we know everything he is doing,” Alhaji fumed.
