The Executive Committee of the Ghana Football Association has finally formed the Public Interest Committee to be headed by Mr. Aloysius Denkabe - PIC.
A statement from the FA on Thursday announced the five-member body to be chaired by Executive Committee member Mr. Aloysius Denkabe.
This move effectively nullifies government's proposal to make Abedi Pele the chairman of the committee.
The formation of the PIC comes in the wake of the Executive Committee's decision to reject government's proposal to nominate Abedi Pele for the vacant CAF executive committee post.
Mr. Ernest Thompson, Mr. Tedi Sory, Mr. Abedi Pele and Mr. Oteng Arthur are the other members of the Public Interest Committee.
The PIC is, among others supposed to:
-Liaise with the Ministry responsible for Sports in terms of provision of the necessary facilities required for building the national football teams.
-Liaise with the Ministry responsible for Sports in the provision of funds by the Government for purposes of building the National football teams.
-In accordance with directives of the Executive Committee and the Ministry, formulate policies, which are necessary for building strong National teams.
-Perform any other functions as ascribed by the Executive Committee with respect to the Protocol on GFA/Government relations.
