Former Ghana Football Association (GFA) President Kwesi Nyantakyi has criticized the current administration, led by Kurt Okraku, for failing to enhance Ghanaian football, particularly the Black Stars.
Under Okraku's leadership, the team has faced consistent struggles in international tournaments, including back-to-back group-stage eliminations at the 2021 and 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).
Ghana also exited the 2022 World Cup at the group stage and recently failed to qualify for the 2025 AFCON, finishing bottom of Group F without a single win.
Nyantakyi highlighted the GFA's instability, pointing out that five coaches have been appointed in five years, a pattern he believes reflects poor management. He urged a review of the current system as the Black Stars prepare for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers in March 2025.
