Ghana Football Association president Kwesi Nyantekyi has arrived in Khartoum for final campaigning ahead of the CAF executive committee elections fully confident he can clinch that seat.
Nyantekyi is seeking to ensure Ghanaian representation at the highest decision making level of the continental football governing body after more than a twenty years without any.
"Given the progress Ghana football has made, I think it is important that we are represented at the major decision making level too but we must work for it,” Nyatekyi told KickOffGhana.com. "We have done that so far but next few days will be crucial even though I am confident it will go well."
The elections are due to take place next Thursday. Meanwhile, the GFA boss' chances have received a major boost with news that Togolese Tata Avesi has opted out of the race to throw his weight behind Nyantekyi.
He will now go up against Benin FA president Anjorin Moucharafu and Niger's Hima Souley.
