Ghana football has really gone through a host of mixed feelings for the past two months, definitely. Take the Black Stars making the quarter finals at the World Cup, the only African flagbearers after the group stages in the first tournament to be played on the continent, and those were specials days with their special memories even if Luis Suarez’s hand of frog ended our world cup in heartbreak.

But the news few days later that Ghana’s number of clubs to represent the country in continental assignments is now reduced from four to two by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) in addition to the International Federation of Football History and Statistics latest club-based ranking which has positioned Ghana’s Premier League 91st in the world and 16 th in Africa is nothing to write home.

Instead of identifying and set about rectifying the problems that have caused our downward spiral on the continental front, it is rather this latest idea of increasing the local league’s composition from 16 to 20 clubs that is the focus of the bigwigs of Ghana football.

King Faisal CEOVincent Odotey Sowah has fished out what he thinks is the problem with Kwasi Nyantakyi's GFA administration. Mr. Odotei Sowah has in an interview with Ark Radio in Sunyani said the FA have failed to draw a plan to deal with political manipulation.

He insisted that Nyantakyi’s administrative system believe in ‘mafia’ and money. “No wonder the politicians are using our game as breeding ground for votes. The system is weak so people take advantage of it,” he said pointing out that it was MP and Minister Hon.ET Mensah who first suggested the 20-club idea.

Vincent Odotei Sowah further stressed that for Ghana footbal to emulate the foreign leagues, Nyantaky and his administration must be voted out of office because they are practicing autocratic rule.

The King Faial capo also said the performance of the Black Stars at the World Cup is not the doing of Nyantakyi's administration. Rather Odotei Sowah says Neil Armstrong and Alhaji Sly Tetteh deserve all the credit for their respective efforts at Ashantigold and Liberty Professionals which unearthed many of the players who are playing for the national team now.

In the Asamoah Gyans, Kwadwo Asamoahs, John Mensahs and many others, Ashgold and Liberty boast several of the current national team stars. The FA only think about money and it is no wonder, there is no proper registrar at the FA to check out corruption. He added that it is only at the FA you could see somebody who does nothing but is earning per diem for the last 3 years and he believe Nyantakyi administration has got too much time to change anything.

Berekum Arsenal CEO Alhaji Yakubu Moro also vented his spleen on the issue of the 20 clubs increment. He has pointed accusing fingers at the top hierarchy of the FA, because “apart from Nyantakyi nobody has a club so they don’t feel what the clubs are going through, the clubs are crying over unpaid sponsorship money by Glo.”

Meanwhile Black Stars’ World Cup campaign was supported by 19 million US Dollars, almost 285 billion old Cedis, that is why he is entreating all other clubs’ CEOs to be present on the day of the meeting to discuss that issue because the clubs representatives could be bribed.

Alhaji Yakubu Moro concluded by declaring that Arsenals will not play the purported reserve league because they can’t get money for that.
