Former Minister for youth and Sports under the J.A Kufour administration, Mallam Yussif Issah has thrown his support behind private legal practitioner Amanda Clinton.

The former minister has hit hard on those contesting for the Ghana Football Association who served under the erstwhile Kwasi Nyantakyi administration describing all of them as been tied to the apron strings of the former GFA boss.

According to him all those contesting with the exception of Amanda Clinton will owe Kwasi Nyantakyi one and so delegates should discard them as they have nothing new to offer our football.

In his words he says they are like ‘old palm wines in new bottles’ and should be discarded as they won’t be able to effect any changes.

In an interview with Kumasi based Akoma Fm, he says Amanda Clinton is the only person who cannot be manipulated since she owes no one favours in the murky football industry.

“The only person I would have wished to win is the lady [Amanda Clinton] “he said.

When queried why he will prefer the private legal practitioner this was his response.

“I see the lady as somebody who cannot be manipulated by whoever. I see her as somebody who does not owe anyone anything”

“No one can tell her you owe me one and we are brothers so you must not turn me down when I ask of favours from you” he emphasized
