However, Gideon Fosu, speaking on Atinka FM’s Legend Sports Show with host Justice Adusi Poku, he emphasized that George Afriyie’s disqualification was based a genuine mistake adding that with the caliber of George Afriyie in Ghana football, nobody ever thought he would be disqualified because of his experience when it comes to the filing his nomination forms.
He added that most football fans thought Mr. Kurt Okraku was the one behind George Afriyie’s disqualification but he(Gideon Fosu) can pinpoint clearly that all the errors made by George were genuine and he should accept it . “I am making this statement based on the report provided by the GFA vetting committee,” he said.
Gideon Fosu added that his opinion on the matter is not an endorsement of Kurt Okraku.
