Nyantakyi shows early signs of delivering on his promises

Published on: 24 June 2011

Ghana FA boss Kwesi Nyantakyi has hit the ground running in his second term of office by delivering on some of his promises after just one week.

The 43-year-old promised last week, when he was re-elected, to massively improve the local league which has been in the doldrums.

He also vowed to continue to use football to promote good causes in the country while concentrating also on improving the youth national teams.

The Caf Executive Committee member stated his keenness on getting goalkeeeper Adam Kwarasey's nationality switch approved.

In his first attempt to revive the local league, the GFA is seeking expert advice from Sir Dave Richards who arrives in the country on Friday to hold meetings with key stakeholders which shows Nyantakyi seriousness in dealing with the problem of the league.

His promise to get Kwarasey approved for the Black Stars has also been fulfilled as the ex-Norway youth international has been cleared to play for Ghana.

This week also Nyantakyi travelled with Emmanuel Adebayor to the Wa and Koro to provide water for the two needy communities, using the game as a force for good.

The country U23 side has sent a strong team to Nigeria for their All African Games qualifier which shows the serious in improving the fortunes of the junior national team.

If Nyantakyi delivers on all his promises including the short-term and long-term promises, Ghana football will be back of its feet.
