The reigning capo of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) has announced his decision to seek for re-election
President of the GFA, Kurt E.S Okraku has declared his intention to vie for the top seat once again in the upcoming elections of the football governing body.
Okraku announced his decision in the closing remarks of the 29th GFA Ordinary Congress at the Great Hall, KNUST on Monday, July 10, 2023.
His statement was met with a standing ovation and chants of "Long Live Kurt" from the enthusiastic crowd.
The GFA elections, scheduled for October, will see the election of new executives, including the highly contested position of the presidency.
Okraku's confirmation sets the stage for a competitive race, as former Ghana Football Association Vice President George Afriyie and Kojo Yankah have also declared their desire to run for the presidency.
Afriyie, who lost to Okraku in the 2019 elections, is considered a formidable candidate with the potential to challenge Okraku's leadership.
