Executive Council member of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Nana Sarfo Oduro, has stated that the association is not obligated to be accountable to the general public, amid mounting calls for greater transparency.

Speaking on Asempa FM, Oduro clarified the GFA's structure, emphasizing that its primary responsibility is to its member clubs, not the wider Ghanaian public.

"The Ghana Football Association (GFA) is accountable to the football people. It is an organization, and we are accountable to each and every football club. The association is made up of individual clubs," he explained.

While acknowledging the enthusiasm and interest of football supporters, Oduro reiterated that the GFA’s formal accountability is limited to its member clubs.

“We are not accountable to supporters or Ghanaians,” he stated, underscoring that the association's focus remains on its internal stakeholders.

The comments come as the GFA faces increasing public scrutiny, particularly after the Black Stars failed to qualify for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).

Critics have called for reforms and greater engagement between the GFA and football fans, demanding a more transparent and inclusive approach to managing the country's football affairs.

Oduro's remarks highlight the ongoing tension between the GFA’s internal structure and the expectations of passionate football supporters across Ghana.
