Two Ghanaian officials implicated in the alleged match fixing involving the Ghana Football Association, have expressed surprise about the reports.<\/p>\n
The UK-based Daily Telegraph’s\u00a0Channel 4’s Dispatches programme claimed after six-month investigations, it uncovered a Ghanaian club official and a Fifa agent had agreed to\u00a0arrange the rigging of international matches involving the national team.<\/p>\n
Christopher Forsythe, a registered Fifa agent, along with Obed Nketiah, a senior figure in the Ghanaian FA, in a secretly recorded video allegedly boasted that they could employ corrupt officials who would rig matches played by Ghana.<\/p>\n
But solicitor for Forsythe and Nketiah, Alfred Tuah-Yeboah described the Daily Telegraph publications as half-baked.<\/p>\n
‘My <\/em>clients have learnt with surprise publications made in the Daily Telegraph of London, U.K and other Media Networks linking them to corrupt activities in the administration of football,’ a press release from the solicitor noted.<\/p>\n Lawyer Tuah-Yeboah maintained that, ‘The said publications are half baked and do not represent the full details of how my clients were lured into those discussions.’<\/p>\n He promised his clients would come out at the appropriate time with\u00a0the truth.<\/p>\n ‘In the fullness of time: my clients would lay bare the true facts on the ground\u00a0for the whole world to know the truth.’<\/p>\n \u00a0 Story by Ghana | Myjoyonline.com | Isaac Essel | [email\u00a0protected]<\/p>\n
