Ghana football legend, Mohammed Polo, has argued that the present Ghana Football administration, led by Kurt Okraku, has been one of the best he has seen.

Speaking to Citi Sports, the 1978 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) winner believes that the current country's football governing body has done a lot for the local game, especially in the women’s area.

He added that he has seen several football administrations and could attest to the fact that Kurt Okraku had done well because football was dead under the Nyantakyi administration.

“He has done tremendously well because there were huge expectations which brought a lot of tension on the GFA," he said.

"This is one of the best GFA administrations I have ever seen.

"I have been in the system and seen a number of the Ghana football administration and this is one of the best which have come and improve Ghana football because football was dead.

“Someone will say Nyantakyi’s time, but he had a crop of players who were dedicated and that was the generation who couldn’t win the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). They were quality but they couldn’t win.

"Things were going bad to worse, but this man, when he came, he was trying to put things in place but the result wasn’t coming. Fortunately, he’s got another term and we are seeing the result," the former Hearts of Oak coach said.
