I think he should concentrate on his roles as WAFU Zone B president, CAF 1st Vice President and FIFA Council Member. He is clearly overwhelmed so he should leave the GFA job.\u201d Agama admonished.<\/p>\n<p>The president of the current FA Cup holders Bechem United suggested that the position should be given to a new face who will bring fresh ideas to the table.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA new face should be made to succeed Kwesi Nyantakyi.
