In a statement released on Wednesday, September 3, 2025, the GFA, under the leadership of President Kurt Simeon-Okraku, acknowledged the ministry’s comments delivered at a press briefing the previous day. The Association assured stakeholders that, as the custodian of Ghana football, it would “in due course, provide clarifications to the issues raised.”
