A seasoned sports journalist, Veronica Commey, has called for the resignation of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) President, Kurt Okraku, following the Black Stars’ failure to qualify for AFCON 2025.
Speaking on Joy News’ PM Express on November 18, Commey minced no words in attributing the national team’s recent struggles to poor leadership at the GFA.
“What GFA President Kurt Okraku should be doing is taking responsibility for the fact that he has supervised the worst-ever spell for Ghana in five years,” she stated emphatically.
This year’s AFCON qualification failure marks the first time since 2004 that Ghana’s national team has missed the tournament.
For Ms Commey, this is part of a worrying pattern under Okraku’s tenure, which she described as Ghana’s worst era in football.
“Back-to-back exits at the Nations Cup in the first round and now failing to qualify. In any serious country, heads must roll,” she argued, stressing the need for accountability at the highest level of Ghana football.
Ms Commey was critical of Okraku’s reluctance to acknowledge his role in the team’s decline.
