The President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Kurt Okraku has officially filed his nomination to contest for a position on the CAF Executive Committee.
The elections are set to take place in March this year with Kurt Okraku now one of the front runners to grab a seat.
Okraku will run unopposed for the seat representing WAFU Zone B, marking a significant step in his administrative career.
In 2021, Okraku withdrew his candidacy for the CAF Executive Committee elections, citing the need to promote unity within WAFU Zone B.
This decision allowed Djibril Hamidou, President of the Niger Football Association, to stand as the sole candidate from the zone and secure the position.
However, Hamidou is now reportedly vying for a spot on the FIFA Council, creating an opportunity for Okraku to secure the CAF role.
According to insiders at the continental football governing body, Okraku has the full backing of WAFU Zone B and is highly likely to claim the position.
This development positions him as a key figure in the ongoing governance of African football.
