Ghana Football Association President Kurt Okraku has condemned the act of hooliganism in the sport and called for the protection of match officials.
Football has been characterized by acts of disturbances in recent years including referees brutalities by aggrieved supporters.
In a press briefing, Okraku called for an end to violence at match centers, even in situations where referees make incorrect decisions.
"Under no circumstances should a referee lose his life for getting a decision wrong," Kurt said.
"Lets take hooliganism in any form out of our game. The product is supreme. We should hold and protect the product."
Bofoakwa Tano and Real Tamale United are among clubs who suffered temporary ban on their home ground following acts of hooliganism.
