Former Public Relations Officer of Accra Great Olympics, Saint Osei, has urged football authorities to urgently address the issue of match fixing in the Ghana Premier League.
His call comes in the wake of the club's relegation from the 2023/24 Ghana Premier League, where they finished in 16th place with 44 points.
Osei expressed his concerns in an interview with Peace FM, monitored by Footballghana.com, stating that the final day of the season saw 17 clubs seemingly united against Accra Great Olympics. He pointed to video evidence of certain incidents on the final day.
"Steps have been taken in that direction especially hooliganism but as to the match fixing you know that it is from Adam that is what I want authorities to make a conscious effort in finding antidote to that which I think it can be done," he said.
"Because I think much attention has not been given to that area because it is very crucial and critical that somebody will work hard and last minute some matches will be played and referees will be giving some penalties.
"It is so glaring it is very disheartening it is so painful a conscious effort get stakeholders on board because at the end of the day it is the football that we are saving it is the football that we want to grow. So things that will rear its ugly head that will make our football to go down we must immediately silence it,"
