Ghana League Clubs Association Chairman hopeful, Kofi Poku has told Nana Oduro Sarfo he will not withdraw his candidature and support to win the upcoming elections.

Kofi Poku, executive member of the Ghana League Clubs Association, made public his interest in the chairmanship position of GHALCA.

But Nana Oduro Sarfo alleged that Kofi Poku, a football administrator cum businessman, has withdrawn his candidature and will lead his campaign team to win the elections scheduled for April 21.

And Kofi Poku is disappointed Nana Oduro Sarfo is spreading unfounded rumours.

“I have not backed down and I won’t back down, ” Kofi Poku told Happy FM.

“I have not told him I am withdrawing from the race and I don’t intend to do withdraw,” he added.

Nana Oduro Sarfo explanation on why Kofi Poku should withdraw from the race was that he campaigned for the former B. A Stars chief executive officer to win the seat of the Division One League Board in the previous elections.

But Kofi Poku insists their vision for GHALCA vary.

“We are two different people with different ideas and how we can implement them. His claims that he campaigned for me to win doesn’t mean I should withdraw what I believe I can do for Ghana and for Ghana football.”

GHALCA went to congress last week and fixed (February 16) April 20 for its elections. Nominations forms to candidates will be made available on March 10.

Kofi Poku will battle incumbent Chairman of the association, Alhaji Raji, chief executive officer of Ashanti Gold, Cudjoe Fianoo, Nana Oduro Sarfo and Isaac Wilberforce Koomson for the chairmanship position.
