“It had been brought to my attention that, it’s been circulating that, I said the former President of the GFA (Kwesi Nyantakyi) did a phenomenal job.
I wish to offer the football fans who were deeply traumatized and hurt from the Anas Aremeyaw Anas video, a clarification on the news story that is circulating about me, regarding my supposed comments on praising the former President of the GFA.
I would like to categorically state that, my comments have been mis-interpreted.
I was addressing the issue of how grassroots mobilisation is important to any campaign for presidency and that he (Kwesi Nyantakyi) did a phenomenal job at mobilising grassroots support and networking throughout the country.
HOWEVER, fraternity is not enough, 2019 is a time for transition, accountability, zero tolerance for bad corporate practices and reliance on new fundraising channels as well as a new face and brand.
I also said, I would take the GFA to the next level when selected, by taking it into the 21st century when it comes to.

I ask that the press works with me to share my message and vision as I work towards become the next President of the GFA and do so in a way that has never been done before in our history.”
