“I have not taken any decision yet” – George Afriyie on another GFA presidential attempt

Former Vice President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), George Afriyie, is hesitant about his plans to once again contend for the presidential position.

Afriyie’s aspirations to lead the football governing body were dashed last year when he faced disqualification ahead of the election, which ultimately saw Kurt Okraku emerge victorious.

In response, Afriyie opted to appeal his disqualification to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). However, his case was recently dismissed, adding a new layer of uncertainty to his future ambitions.

Given this latest setback, Afriyie expresses doubt regarding his willingness to pursue the presidency once more.

“Nobody knows tomorrow. I have not taken any decision yet, but in life, you just have to focus and do what you want to do, and then when there is time and opportunity to do anything, why not?” he told Graphic Sports.

On the decision to dismiss his appeal, he added, “I just gave my opinion, and I said, per what the CAS ruling is, I have accepted it, so we move.”

Afriyie held the position of vice president under Kwesi Nyantakyi’s leadership in the association.
