The CEO of Tema Youth, Wilfred Osei Kwaku Palmer has officially been disqualified from the upcoming Ghana Football Association presidential race.

His disqualification has come as a big surprise to a lot of people and has set Social Media ablaze. But maybe the experienced football administrator saw it coming.

Why? Because Wilfred Kwaku Osei Palmer conceded that his interview with the GFA Vetting Committee last Saturday was hectic and grueling.

Osei Palmer as he is affectionately called spent over two hours with the Vetting Committee, answering questions about why he should be allowed to contest the upcoming elections. Palmer was also made to answer for his stewardship in the various roles he had played under former President Kwesi Nyantakyi’s tenure.

Speaking to the media after his encounter with the committee, Palmer said “wow, they pushed me but I will say it went well. I was able to give explanations to some of the questions raised and I am most grateful. The Almighty had me prepared for most of the issues that they raised.”

Last weekend all the seven persons who have put themselves forward to be considered and elected to succeed Kwesi Nyantakyi faced the Vetting Committee. The results are expected to be announced in the coming days before the main elections are held on October 25.

Earlier this week, Wilfred Kwaku Osei (Palmer) officially launched his manifesto and outlined his vision to restore and save Ghana Football at the Swiss Spirit Alisa Hotel.
