We’ve not expelled Ashantigold from Ghana football - Prosper Harrison Addo opens up on club’s state

Prosper Harrison Addo, General Secretary of the Ghana Football Association has opened up on the state of Ashantigold in Ghana football at large after suspending the club during congress.

The former Ghana Premier League winners were suspended officially from the Ghana Football Association following a congress decision weeks ago.

The motion was moved by the administrative manager of Dreams FC, Ameenu Shardow, for the Obuasi-based club to be suspended during the 29th congress session of the Ghana FA at KNUST Great Hall.

After a vote by headcount was conducted, 67 voted in favour of suspension while 17 voted against the motion.

Explaining the state of the club, the Ghana FA scribe asserted Ashantigold have not been expelled from Ghana football as purported to be.

“The decision that was taken only maintains the status code and there has not been anything new to Ashantigold. Per our laws, if you want to maintain it the next congress to have to take it there and congress will maintain it because the ultimate power for suspension of a member or expulsion of a member sits with congress”

“So we have not expelled Ashantigold, people think they have been expelled and are out of everything, some have explained it in so many ways. The thing is suspension, there were suspended already and I heard people say that it is contempt of court, please Ashantigold have not been suspended because of going to court, No”
