\u2026. For questioning GH\u00a2132.9 million expenditure<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Ghana Football Association (GFA) appears not remorseful over the outrageous GH\u00a2132.9 million amount blown on the ongoing 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire, despite the senior national team\u2019s exit from the tournament at the group stage.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The GFA, has attempted pleading with Ghanaian fans to forgive the Black Stars over the shambolic performance, but one of its officials, Nana Oduro Sarfo, an Executive Council member, is adverse with attempts to question the Sports Ministry\u2019s 2023 budget for the AFCON and has unleashed his acerbic tongue on those doing so.<\/p>\n

Oduro Sarfo, has been reacting to North Tongu MP, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa\u2019s expos\u00e9 on the Sports Ministry\u2019s budget for AFCON 2023, saying his party, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) rather superintended over Ghana\u2019s most expensive AFCON campaign.<\/p>\n

He, however, failed to provide the necessary breakdown, unlike the GH\u00a2105 million released for the event and GH\u00a227. 9 million blown on the qualifiers.<\/p>\n

These amounts did not, include what, the National Security sent to supporters to cheer one of the poorly performing teams in Ghana\u2019s football history.<\/p>\n

In a statement on Tuesday, the GFA took responsibility for the Black Stars\u2019 sub-par campaign, stating that it \u201cfell short of the high expectations we all share.\u201d<\/p>\n

The GFA apologised to Ghanaians for the Black Stars\u2019 group-stage exit from the AFCON 2023 tournament, a week after the team was eliminated<\/p>\n

Ghana crashed out of AFCON 2023 winless, losing their opening game in the competition to Cape Verde, before draws with Egypt and Mozambique, saw them finish with two points.<\/p>\n

In a social media post, the NDC MP, published an official government document that showed the country allocated in excess of US$8.5 million for the tournament.<\/p>\n

But speaking on Asempa FM on Tuesday, Oduro Sarfo, claimed that the MP made the document public as a diversionary tactic.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe may have published the details to influence public discourse and deflect our focus from important issues. Maybe he did not like the fact that the New Patriotic Party\u2019s Parliamentary Primaries were peaceful, free and fair,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cOr because he does not want Ghanaians to talk about the resumption of work on the National Cathedral.\u201d<\/p>\n

Oduro Sarfo, doubled down by stating that, in the history of Ghana\u2019s participation at the AFCON, the most ridiculous budgets have been approved by NDC governments.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have done my research and concluded that, in the history of this country, NDC governments have approved the most outrageous of budgets as far as AFCON is concerned.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEven though the prize money for AFCON 2015 was $1.5, they (the NDC government) budgeted $15m.\u201d<\/p>\n

Joy Sports checks have, however, disproved this allegation.<\/p>\n

In February 2015, then Sports Minister, Mahama Ayariga, informed Parliament that Ghana\u2019s approved budget for the tournament was $4,774,519.19.<\/p>\n

Government paid $3,224,139.20 in bonuses and allowances to players, the technical team, the management committee, as well as other officials of the team.<\/p>\n

The Ministry, said it reduced payments to players by 20percent, while technical team members saw a 30percent cut on their earnings from the previous tournament.<\/p>\n

Mahama Ayariga, also told Parliament that the Ministry spent \u20b53,242,588.00 on the AFCON 2015 Qualifiers.<\/p>\n

However, the minority caucus in Parliament rejected his account of the government\u2019s expenditure, because it did not include a full breakdown or an intermixed report of the budget.<\/p>\n

Nana Oduro Safo, cautioned North Tongu MP, to desist from engaging in cheap political commentary and focus on his mandate to influence policymaking.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe should concentrate on his job of passing bills in Parliament and stop engaging in small, small, cheap politics in football.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is not the best,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n

Sometime in April 2023, the same Nana Oduro Sarfo, was forced to apologise to one of the country\u2019s celebrated footballers, Stephen Appiah, over his comment of lack of knowledge.<\/p>\n

Mr Oduro Sarfo\u2019s remarks came in response to comments made by former Black Stars captain, Stephen Appiah, on football administration in Ghana.<\/p>\n

The football administrator was heavily criticized by Ghanaian football fanatics after calling on former footballers, including Appiah to better themselves in education to be able to hold positions in football administration.<\/p>\n

His comments have, however, been met with public rage, following which he retracted and apologised to the former Juventus ace for his words.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I want to say is that my words were misinterpreted,\u201d he told\u00a0Asempa FMon theUltimate Sports Show, adding \u201cI will never disrespect Stephen Appiah. He is a legend of the football community in the country and the world as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cI spoke to a Kumasi-based radio station and Onua FM and whatever I said, I retract them. I have a good relationship with Stephen Appiah and Laryea Kingston. I have tried to call him [Stephen Appiah] but I can\u2019t because of how my words have been misinterpreted.<\/p>\n

\u201cLaryea is out of town and when he returns, I will let him lead me to see Stephen Appiah and apologise to him.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor now, I apologise and retract my words,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Stephen Appiah has said that the experiences garnered by ex-footballers have been left to rot as a result of being sidelined by authorities in charge of the game.<\/p>\n

\u201cLegends and former players are not getting the chance around football administration. I have learned something, that football is run by footballers. It is not the grammar or English that you speak,\u201d he said on Sompa FM.<\/p>\n

The GFA statement on Tuesday said, \u201cthe Ghana Football Association extends our sincerest apologies to the good people of Ghana and all stakeholders for the recent disappointing performance of the senior national team, the Black Stars at the Africa Cup of Nations C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire 2023,\u201d the FA said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe understand the disappointment and frustration that such results can bring to our passionate football-loving nation. We take full responsibility for the disappointment.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As usual the head coach, Chris Hughton, has been fired after Ghana\u2019s exit was confirmed, while the Black Stars\u2019 technical team was also dissolved. The search for a new head coach is being spearheaded by a five-member committee led by Vice President, Mark Addo.<\/p>\n

The GFA also announced that after a meeting of the Executive Council of the Association and Chairmen of the RFAs it was conducting a thorough review of various aspects of the national team, including strategies, training, compensation and overall structure.<\/p>\n

The Association added that it was committing to \u201crestoring the pride and success we all desire for the Black Stars.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe value the unwavering support of our stakeholders, and we commit to working tirelessly with you to ensure a stronger and more competitive team. Your loyalty and passion are the driving forces behind our efforts to rebuild and elevate the standard of Ghanaian football.\u201d<\/p>\n
