President of Edubiase United Football Club, Abdul Salam Yakubu says he is taking a bow from the Management Committee of the National U-23 side, the Black Meteors after the Ethics Committee’s ruling.
The Ethics Committee of the Ghana Football Association on Wednesday ruled that the President of Edubiase United Football Club should pay a fine of GHS2000 and handed him a four match ban for failing to substantiate allegations leveled against Referee Eric Owusu Mensah after the Glo Premier Leagues’s Week 7 encounter with Berekum Chelsea which Edubiase lost by a lone goal.
But the Edubiase Football Club President in an interview on Asempa Fm’s Sports Morning show on Thursday said he had been given a raw deal and was thus resigning from the Meteors Management Committee.
According to him the posture of the Ethics Committee only ascribe to the fact that they had already taken their decision before the hearing.
He explains that the Football Association is supposed to be fair to all and sundry but it was not so in his case and wondered why an allegation made to the same referee by other members of the Association goes unpunished but his had attracted the hefty sanctions.
The display of favoritism and selective justice at the GFA is not good and thus resigning from his post as a Management Committee member of the National U-23, the Black Meteors he added.
In a related development, Emergency Committee member of the Ghana Football Association, George Afriyie has cautioned Mr. Abdul Salam Yakubu to tread cautiously and not go about accusing everybody.
