Dreams FC Chief Kurt Okraku remains coy on FA Presidency contest

Published on: 28 December 2017

Dreams FC boss Kurt Okraku is still undecided as to whether he might contest for the Football Association Presidency seat, following support from the public for him to contest. 

Ghana Football Association President, Kwesi Nyantakyi revealed some months ago he wont be seeking re-election after 12 years on the seat.

Many are calling in for Kurt Okraku to contest, but the astute football administrator has called for respect for Nyanytakyi's seat and says he is happy for the calls for him to contest.

"I am extremely happy when people recognize that you are a top material, secondly you're doing a good job. You are contributing your quota towards association football," he told Joy Sports

"But I have said on numerous platforms that it's important that we do not disrespect the tenure of President Kwesi Nyantakyi.

"He is the man in the seat. He has a two-year mandate to go. He has not told anybody on the Executive Committee that he's not contesting again.

‘'So there no point in waiting thinking about the position that is not existent. I will want to respect his position. I will continue to contribute my quota towards the development of the sport.

"I am sure one day, we'll come back and talk about this topic."
