Former President John Agyekum Kufuor commended Kurt Edwin Simeon-Okraku, the President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), for his accomplishments and effective leadership during his initial term.
Following Kurt’s successful re-election, former President Kufuor expressed his full confidence in Kurt’s capabilities.
Kurt was re-elected for another four-year term after securing an impressive 97.5% of the votes during the elective congress held in Tamale on Thursday, October 5, 2023.
During a visit to his Peduase residence to extend condolences for the loss of his wife, Theresa Kufuor, the Executive Council, led by President Simeon-Okraku, received commendation from former President Kufuor.
He recognized the dynamic energy that Kurt had infused into Ghanaian football and encouraged him to persist in making positive contributions to the sport during his second term.
The former president stated, “You have done exceedingly well in your first term and I expect you to do more in your second term to elevate the game to a very high standard.”
Kurt Okraku’s re-election came after George Afriyie was disqualified by the elections committee, leaving Kurt to run unopposed.
