Owner and bankroller of Tema Youth, Wilfred Osei Kwaku Palmer says he has accepted the Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS) decision to dismiss his case against the Ghana Football Association (GFA).
The Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS) ruled that the decision of the GFA Elections Committee to disqualify Wilfred Kweku Osei, affectionately called Osei Palmer from the 2019 GFA Election is valid.
The decision means Kurt Okraku will stay on as the FA President with no re-election ordered.
Palmer was contesting the legitimacy of the current leadership of the FA at the Court of Arbitration for Sports.
He was found guilty of breaking GFA codes and was thus prevented from contesting the elections that saw the arrival of Kurt Okraku and eleven other Executive Council members.
Reacting to his verdict, Palmer said, “I am gratified by the fact that, this long legal tussle has finally come to an end”
“Even though I have issues against the main grounds for the delivery of the final verdict, I have no other alternative than to accept it in good faith and move on in life. At the end of the day, it is a victory for Ghana Football.
It is my prayer that we all continue to pool our resources to move Ghana football forward to reach the desired heights that we all wish for” he said.
