\"Kwesi Kwesi Nyantakyi denies sabotaging Ghana football<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

A former President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Kwesi Nyantakyi, has debunked claims that he is spiritually sabotaging the Black Stars.<\/p>\n

The news emerged after a prophet named Samuel Agyarkwah, also known as Akwankyere Papa, alleged that Nyantakyi has put Ghana football under spiritual attack.<\/p>\n

He claimed that the former GFA President does not want his successors to thrive and outperform him.<\/p>\n

“The truth is that Ghana football is under spiritual attack, which has caused its downfall. Ghana football is being tied in the Northern Region by a popular ex-GFA President. The reason is to block his successors from shining so that he will be remembered forever,” he said on Mothers FM\/TV, as quoted by Ghanasportspage.<\/p>\n

Nyantakyi vehemently denied indulging in such a diabolic act to cause the downfall of the senior national team.<\/p>\n

During an interview with JoySports, the former CAF first vice president rubbished the claims and urged the public to disregard them.<\/p>\n

“The Black Stars do not belong to me; the team belong to Ghanaians. How can I engage in spiritual machinations for the team to fail? I was the President of Ghana football, not the Black Stars. In 2006, when we launched our football policy in Cape Coast, it was a comprehensive plan for the development of Ghana football as a whole.<\/p>\n

“We consistently revised and implemented policies for governance, marketing, youth football, women’s football, player and referee development, among others. Was that about the Black Stars alone? Many of these so-called prophets seek fame by riding on the popularity of football. They peddle hogwash to capture public attention,” Nyantakyi stated.<\/p>\n

This comes after the Black Stars failed to qualify for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Morocco following a terrible performance in the qualifiers.<\/p>\n

It marks the first time in 20 years the nation has not made it to the continental showpiece.<\/p>\n
