Keta FC has issued a strongly worded press statement expressing “grave concerns” over what it describes as issues of fairness, due process, and integrity within football administration in the Volta Region following its Middle League victory over Yingor FC.

The club’s statement comes after reports of a protest allegedly filed against Keta FC following its 3-2 win over Yingor FC in a recent Middle League fixture.

According to Keta FC, the protest reportedly concerns matters linked to the 2023/2024 Middle League season.

The club argues that Yingor FC neither qualified for nor participated in that competition, making it difficult to understand the legal or procedural basis of the protest in the current Middle League campaign.

Keta FC further alleged that the matter appears to be receiving unusual administrative attention from officials within the Volta Regional Football Association (VRFA), raising concerns about what it described as “bias, selective justice, and targeted administrative conduct” against the club.

The club also noted that previous protest decisions ruled in its favor remain unresolved, a situation it believes reflects inconsistencies in the administration of football matters in the region.

In the statement issued by management on May 27, 2026, Keta FC highlighted the role of the club’s owner, Enyonam Apetorgbor, describing her investment in men’s football as a progressive contribution to football development in the Volta Region. The club warned that any attempts to frustrate such investments through selective administrative actions could discourage women’s participation in football ownership and sports development.

Keta FC additionally cautioned against the alleged use of influence, sponsorship arrangements, or proximity to power to interfere with football administration. The club stressed that sponsorship of competitions should not translate into preferential treatment or guaranteed qualification outcomes.

“Keta FC defeated Yingor FC decisively on the field of play by 3:2 and will not accept any attempt by owners, sponsors, or interested parties to use influence to overturn a legitimate sporting result,” the statement said.

The club further warned that allowing off-field influence to determine results could undermine the credibility of football in the Volta Region and encourage clubs to seek administrative advantages instead of competing fairly on the pitch.

Calling on the VRFA to uphold fairness and impartiality, Keta FC urged football authorities to apply regulations “without fear, favor, intimidation, or selective justice.”

The statement concluded by emphasizing that the growth and credibility of Volta football depend on fairness being “seen, felt, and applied equally to all.”
