The Ghana Football Association (GFA) is expected to render an unqualified apology to Ghanaians for the Black Stars' failure to qualify for AFCON 2025, JoySports has gathered.
The Executive Council of the football governing body, at its meeting on Wednesday, took responsibility for the team’s failure and resolved to communicate publicly with Ghanaians.
They are expected to announce the dissolution of the Black Stars management Committee in a statement on Thursday.
The Management Committee, led by Mark Addo, with Akwesi Agyeman as Vice Chairman was dissolved a few weeks ago, but three people were asked to act.
Mark Addo, Kwame Ofosu Bamfo, and Akwesi Agyeman were asked to act, but it appears it was a smokescreen because they were not present in most of the qualifying matches.
Randy Abbey acted as leader of delegation in some of the trips the Black Stars made, but he was not introduced to the technical team or playing body as Management Committee member.
Ghana failed to qualify for the AFCON for the first time in 21 years, finishing bottom of Group F, which included Niger, Sudan, and Angola.
The four-time AFCON champions, having participated in every tournament since 2006, were unsuccessful in their attempt this time.
The team has been dismal over the last five years, exiting at the group stage in the last two AFCON tournaments.The FA says Ghanaians deserve better and will apologise for the latest failure.
