GFA Boss Kwesi Nyantakyi swears by Holy Quran

President of the Ghana Football Association, Mr. Kwesi Nyantakyi swore by the Holy Quran as he took his turn before the Presidential Commission of Inquiry into the Brazil 2014 World Cup.

Hitherto, Mr. Nyantakyi was widely believed to be a Christian but a source close to the football chief has confirmed that he is indeed a Muslim.

Nyantakyi is expected to give evidence on the activities of the GFA, the senior national team’s financing history, their preparations and will also give a vivid account of happenings in the Black Stars camp during their campaign at the World Cup in Brazil.

He is also expected to give recommendations on the way forward for the senior national team as well as other national teams.

The premise of the Commission’s sittings – the Media Center of the Accra Sports Stadium – is packed with journalists and many stakeholders in football who are there to witness today’s sitting.
