We Will Fix This Problem; Kurt Okraku After Ghana’s AFCON Qualifiers Failure
The President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Simeon Kurt Okraku has committed to finding an effective remedy to the plight of the Black Stars and reset them back on the winning ways.
This follows the team’s inability to qualify for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations tournament after managing just three points from six games.
Ghana ended the qualifiers with a defeat to Niger at the Accra Sports Stadium in the Greater Accra Region on November 19, 2024 after drawing against Angola in Luanda last week.
Reacting to this showpiece, the FA boss admitted the results “is not what we want or what we bargained for”.
“From the highest heights of world football on the 29th of March 2022 to the lowest ebb of AFCON qualifying matches. My heart bleeds. Definitely, this is not what we want or what we bargained for.”
He acknowledged that the solution to this canker must come from the leadership of the FA and called for calm amid agitation from the football fraternity.
“At this point, only cool heads can win, and we, as leaders of our sport, will stay together, be honest with ourselves, and fix this problem. The road to full recovery after normalization is definitely bumpy and rough, but our collective efforts and patience will win, and Ghana, our beloved country, will win.”
“As a Black Stars fan and as the leader, I share in your pain and in our pain. We will rise from this temporary setback. It shall be well,” he concluded.
