Ghana: President Mills to Investigate GFA

President John Evans Atta Mills has sought permission from Fifa boss Sepp Blatter to set up a presidential commission of enquiry to investigate how the Ghana Football Association uses funds given it by the government.

President Mills made the disclosure at a press briefing at the Kotoka International Airport in Accra on Wednesday night on his return from the Fifa headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland.

He explained that his intension to set up a commission to investigate the Ghana FA should not be seen as political interference but a way of ensuring financial sanity in the association.

This could lead to the formation of the public interest committee at the Football Association.
