The Normalisation Committee of the Ghana Football Association has set September 5 as the new date for the Extra-Ordinary Congress.

The date has been shifted from August 19 and according to the NC, this is to fully comply with relevant provisions of the Statutes of the GFA without ambiguity.

Congress- which is the highest decision body will either adopt or reject amendments made to the statutes.

If the new amendments and electoral code are approved, it will pave way for the election of a new leader for the Ghana Football Association.

This latest development means a clear path is in sight to reconstitute a substantive GFA administration.

A statement on the FA website reads;

“The Normalisation Committee of the GFA, in its quest to fully comply with relevant provisions of the Statutes of the GFA without ambiguity, has rescheduled the Extra Ordinay Congress of the GFA from Wednesday August 19 to Thursday September 5, 2019.

The rescheduling clears any ambiguity over interpretation of relevant provisions of the GFA Statutes by stakeholders, regarding the number of days required for Extra Ordinary Congress as well as the agenda for the Extraordinary Congress as earlier communicated.

The rescheduling also offers us the unique opportunity of welcoming to Ghana a FIFA representative as a special guest for this historic Congress.

We are looking forward to welcoming our stakeholders for what is anticipated to be a very successful Congress towards the forward match of Ghana football”
