Ghana Football Association Announce New Date For An Elective Congress


The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has announced a new date for it’s Elective Congress due to be held in the Northern Region of Ghana.

The scheduled date for the Extraordinary Congress was earlier fixed on September 27, 2023 but it has now been pushed to October 5, 2023.

The possible reason behind the rescheduled date is linked to the pending court case between the bank roller of King Faisal FC, Alhaji Karim GrunsahKing and the Ghana Football Association after the latter had hurled the GFA’s Election Committee to Court over the procedures announced for this year’s election.

After court sitting was held, it adjourned the case to September 28, 2023 resulting in the change of date by the Elections Committee. Sources within the FA corridor’s are of the view that the final determination of the case will possibly go to their favor, hence the new fic of date for the congress.

Below is the full statement of the Executive Council of the FA:

Pursuant to Article 33 of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) Statutes 2019, the Executive Council of the Association has decided that the Extraordinary Session of Congress (Elective Congress) shall be rescheduled to Thursday, October 5, 2023 at 9:00 o’clock in the forenoon at the Global Dream Hotel, Tamale.
