Ex-Ghana international Mohammed Polo, has labelled Francis Oti Akenteng as an abject failure during his time as technical director of the Ghana Football Association.

Oti Akenteng brought to an end an over 10 years stint as head of the FA’s technical directorate at the close of last month.

Discussions about how he fared in the role have been activated in the media space as the GFA intensifies the process of appointing his successor.

Mohammed Polo in reviewing the work of Oti Akenteng didn’t mince words when he called him a failure and someone who contributed close to zilch towards Ghana football’s development.

The former Hearts of Oak coach was speaking in an interview with local station Asempa FM.

He blasted “Oti Akenteng and other technical directors, they did nothing for Ghana, I’m telling you.

“Because if you’re a technical director, you have a huge responsibility, you have to ensure that development of football is in your domain.

“They sat down and plunged our football into stagnation, we don’t even know where we stand.

Mohammed Polo went further to hint that Oti Akenteng was not in charge hence his failure to inlfuence any positives.

“You know where he (Oti Akenteng) bad a problem…He was not in charge, we don’t see what he was doing, he was not in control.

“In the development of football, there was nothing going on” he concluded.
