Last year award-winning investigative journalist and the founder of Tiger Eye PI investigative company, Anas Aremeyaw Anas, shook the foundations of Ghana most specifically the Ghana Football Association.
His investigative piece titled ‘Number 12‘ looked into widespread corruption that has engulfed African football over the years but people have always disputed.
Mrs Christine-Marie Nyantakyi, wife of the former President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Kwesi Nyantakyi says her husband was not of himself during Anas’ secret investigations.
According to Mrs Nyantakyi, her husband has been a lawyer for 25 years and for such a person to be easily carried away by Anas and his Tiger Eye PI team was not physical but spiritual.
Former Ghana Football Association (GFA) President Mr. Ousman Alhaji Kwesi Nyantakyi has been handed a lifetime ban from all footballing activities by the football world governing body FIFA’s ethics committee.
The lifetime ban from FIFA handed over to Kwesi Nyantakyi came into being after being caught in ace investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas’ investigative piece or sting operation dubbed ‘Number 12’, which sought to bring to bear the deep-rooted corruption that has been associated with Ghanaian and African football as a whole.
The Former President of the Ghana Football Association(GFA), Kwesi Nyantakyi was banned from all football related activies by FIFA and fined 500,000 Swiss Francs after the world football governing body found him guilty of bribery and corruption.
Frankly speaking in football administration in Ghana one man by name Kwesi Nyantakyi has been on the rise since the early 2000s when he was voted as the Ghana Football Association President. Before becoming the FA president of Ghana he was the Ghana League Club Association (GHALCA) President which automatically qualified him to be the GFA vice president.
Kwesi Nyantakyi’s presidency was a refreshing news for the football fraternity or industry of Ghana as Nyantakyi was a fresh young man full of ideas and a lawyer as such who carried himself very well. He suddenly became the hope for Ghana football and an inspiration for a lot of young men who were into football management and administration.
A former President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), Dr Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe, has called into question the integrity of Anas Aremeyaw Anas.
According to the politician and football executive, Anas is a ‘fake’ investigator who takes bribes to compromise his integrity, making accusations similar to what Hon Kennedy Agyapong has been making for the past few months since the release of ‘Number 12’.
Earlier this year the ace investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas released one of his most explosive documentaries yet, ‘Number 12’, which looked into corruption in Ghanaian football.

The world football governing body Fifa has extended the 90 day ban handed to former GFA President Kwesi Nyantakyi from all football activities by another 45 days.
Fifa handed the initial three month ban to Nyantakyi following the bombshell Anas ‘Number 12’ report which showed him accepting a ton of cash from investigators and entering into illegal deals.

The Federation of International Football Associations (FIFA) has announced the appointment of a normalization committee to run the Ghana Football Association until a new body of officers are elected.

The government of Ghana and FIFA recently agreed to set up a normalisation committee to help bring back Ghana football to normalcy after the storm that hit it in the wake of the Anas Aremeyaw Anas #12 expose´.
The government is expected to file a motion today [Monday] at the Accra High Court to officially withdraw its liquidation petition against the Ghana Football Association.
Ghanaian Television personality and head of sports at Atinka TV, Mr Saddick Adams has said that even though he supports Government’s decision to dissolve Ghana Football Association but he does not support the approach which the government is using.
According to Mr Saddick, speaking on Atinka TV’s “Sports Court Show”, those people who created the mess have been allowed to walk free so the government’s idea is incomplete until those involved have been prosecuted.

Former UK Ambassador to Ghana, Jon Benjamin, never saw eye to eye with the GFA during his time in Ghana as he passed some comments to the tune of how corrupt the institution was.
As with most Ghanaians who saw the GFA for what it actually was – a cesspool of pay to play enriching the ‘big men’ and leaving Ghana football to deteriorate – he was eventually proven right.
A delegation from the Ghana government met with a Fifa delegation in Zurich today, Thursday August 16th and agreed to halt the court process to dissolve the Ghana Football Association.

The governing body of world football association, FIFA has threatened to ban Ghana from taking part in any football-related games if Ghana government refuses to stop interfering in the affairs of the Ghana Football Association (GFA).
According to FIFA, there are no clear reasons behind Anas’ “Number 12” expose’ in which some of GFA officials were caught red-handed taking bribes to fix matches.
Chief Executive Officer of Databank, Kwadwo Addai Mensah has expressed disappointment in the world football governing body, FIFA for threatening to suspend Ghana if the Government refuses to call off the charges made against GFA.
According to FIFA, the corruption allegations made against Ghana Football Association in Anas’ “Number 12” is not a clear reason for the Ghanaian government to ‘Slap’ GFA with liquidation process.
The Accra High Court has extended for a period the injunction placed on activities of the Ghana Football Association sought by the Attorney General’s Department.
The AG applied for the injunction to be put in place to prevent the FA from making moves whilst the court case seeking to dissolve it had yet to be determined.
Fighting corruption in Ghana is a very tiring job.
The rich and powerful are mostly corrupt and any attempt by someone like Anas to burst their bubble would be fought off with all the immense resources they command.
In the aftermath of Anas Aremeyaw Anas’ exposé into Ghana football which exposed the seedy underbelly of the game we all love, former FA boss Kwesi Nyantakyi is the one who has borne most of the consequences.
Nyantakyi has lost positions at the GFA, WAFU, CAF and Fifa and he’s still under investigation by local authorities.
