Dr. Tony Aubynn, an Executive Council Member of the Ghana Football Association, has emphasized that the current leadership has unfinished business even after four years.
This assertion has been a driving force behind his decision to seek re-election, as he aims to secure a position on the upcoming Executive Council (EXCO) in the GFA Elections scheduled for September 27 in Tamale.
“The current executive council has started a journey,” Aubynn told Citi Sports following his vetting.
“That journey is reachable. We haven’t reached that journey. And so if you have the capacity to support for yet another term, you should be able to do that. I think there are a lot of things that need to be done.”
The Medeama SC Board Chairman is one of eleven administrators vying for five Premier League positions on the next GFA Executive Council for 2023 to 2027.
“You need to do it at a certain level and then you can then give it to someone else to also push. You cannot stay there forever. But whilst you are strong, mentally fit, physically capable to contribute, it’s all sacrificial.
“I mean, generally this is not a piece of work that gives you any financial returns, but sometimes you get insults.”
“But once you are committed to making contribution to the sport that you love, anyone who goes into this area has a passion, is driven by passion. All of us are driven by passion. And so we are going to contribute our quota to bringing Ghana football up again.”
Current Executive Council Members, Dr. Randy Abbey, Fred Acheampong, Nana Oduro Sarfo, and Kingsley Osei Bonsu are seeking election.
Others in contention are Former Black Stars Head Coach, James Kwesi Appiah Onyina Asenso, Edmund Ackah, Raphael Gyambrah, Elloeny Amande, and Alhaji Moro Akambi.
