With social media buzzing with opinions about the scandal and his subsequent arrest, the GFA president has come out to describe the media publication as bad publicity.

Speaking in an interview with GhanaWeb’s Sports Editor Daniel Oduro, Mr. Yeboah, a staunch critic of the GFA president strongly suggested that Mr. Nyantakyi be relieved of his post.

I think it has been long overdue and he has over stayed his welcome. Even Ohene Djan and Kwame Nkrumah who won independence spent six years in office. So I don’t see why he should still want more. What will hurt is his international appointment. If not for anything at all, they will say Kwesi Nyantakyi of Ghana so if he will lose that one, then I pity him,” he noted.
