Ghana FA president Okraku sheds light on football reformation plan

Ghana Football Association (GFA) president Kurt Okraku is not lost on the "huge responsibility" placed on him by his election as new leader of the country's football governing body.

In October, the former Dreams FC chief beat five other candidates to assume the top office, replacing Kwesi Nyantakyi whose administration was collapsed by a bribery and corruption scandal in June 2018.

The domestic league and other competitive championships, which have been on hold since the leadership scandal, are all but set to resume.

"The task ahead is possible if we all put our shoulders to the wheel and collectively pull towards the direction we all want to be," Okraku said during Thursday's GFA Ordinary Session of Congress to usher in the 2019-20 season.
