A cement block company situated at Legon has finally emerged as the broker of the GFA/GLO sponsorship deal for Ghana’s top-flight league, the Glo premier league.
The company was registered in August 1997 as Midsea Company Limited and later changed to Midsea Estates limited in 2005, commenced work on 2nd September 1997 and engaged in the production and supply of cement blocks, sand, stones and other building materials, import and export of general goods and distribution of building materials and later expanded to general construction.
It was the directors of Midsea Estates Limited - Gertrude Twum, Marian Addy and Jane Cole - who secured the Glo sponsorship deal for Ghana’s professional league, according to Ghana Football Association president, Kwesi Nyantekyi who disclosed the identity of the brokers on Asempa FM sports morning show on Wednesday.
Mr. Abraham Boakye, popularly known as One Man Supporter, who doubles as a Globacom Ambassador for Ghana, is challenging the involvement of any agent or agency in brokering the Glo deal since Glo does not deal with third parties. He maintains that it was a walk-in deal he personally championed by introducing Glo to the GFA and wonders at what stage the cement company joined in and why the FA would seek to credit Midsea as the agency responsible for the deal.
Asempa Sports understands the Glo sponsorship deal for the premier league is worth $3,000,000 for five years.
